Hi Dear Thanks for your query to HCM.
Read and reviewed facts of your query in context to your requirements of Vitamins/ Mineral Supplements post RYGB-Rou-en -Y Gastric Bypass.
Basically with gastric portion being bypassed with lack of intrinsic factor, possibility of Vit B12 deficiencies , with Folic acid and Iron deficiencies, from bypass of small intestine absorbing Iron, in such cases, creates multiple Vitamin and mineral deficiencies.
Oral soluble / sublingual Vit B12 is needed, as the absorption from Oral Vit B12 is questionable.
Besides this, Vit D3 with Calcium to avoid bone decalcifications/ resorptions is needed.
Yes.. thus you can add these micronutrient-Vit B12- up to 500 mcg per day sub-lingually or 1000 mcg Inj / IM. would resolve the higher daily intake needed in such bypass cases.
You should add up other vitamine and trace minerals-like selenium / magnesium / zinc etc, for lifetime to avoid deficiencies being created otherwise.
Hope this would help you to resolve your Vitamin and minerals related issues post RY-GB surgery.
Welcome for any further query in this regard.
Good Day!!
