After Weight Loss Surgery (WLS), getting enough calcium is a real challenge.
Before surgery, we absorb about 40% of calcium. After WLS, calcium absorption is heavily reduced to as low as 9%.
BN Chocolate with Calcium Citrate. The ASMBS Nutritional Guidelines for WLS indicate a calcium citrate supplement is required daily for Bariatric patients. Calcium citrate is more easily absorbed than other forms of calcium.
