Why is calcium important after bariatric surgery?

Calcium is essential for maintaining strong bones. After bariatric surgery, your body's ability to absorb calcium can be reduced, making it crucial to supplement your diet with calcium to meet your daily needs.

What type of calcium is best for bariatric patients?

Calcium citrate is considered one of the best types of calcium for bariatric patients because it is easier to absorb, especially in the altered digestive system after surgery.

Can I get enough calcium from my diet alone after bariatric surgery?

It may be difficult to meet the recommended daily intake of calcium after bariatric surgery due to the reduced food intake and absorption issues. Supplementation is often recommended to help address potential dietary gaps after surgery.

When is the best time to take calcium supplements?

It is recommended that calcium supplements be taken in divided doses, typically two to three times a day, as the body may only absorb 500-600 mg of calcium at a time. It’s also recommended to take calcium supplements with meals to support absorption.
