Does Bariatric Advantage® have multivitamin supplements without iodine?

As you’ve undergone stomach surgery, you can’t digest as much food as before. As a result, iodine intake through food is significantly reduced.

It’s recommended to take additional calcium citrate alongside Bariatric Advantage® Multi. An additional 1200 mg, and preferably 1500 mg of calcium (3 chewable tablets), per day is recommended for maintaining strong bones and teeth.
Can I open the Hair capsule and extract its contents?
No, it's not not possible to open the capsule, nor to cut it in half. This is because the content of the capsule is an oily substance, which would otherwise be lost.
