After slimming surgery, your calcium intake is also reduced. Elan has developed
Calcium vital tablet especially for people with slimming surgery to supplement your daily requirement. Calcium vital contains calcium citrate, because this form of calcium is well absorbed by your body. Vitamin D3 has also been added to the Calcium vital tablets because it increases calcium absorption in your bones. Calcium and vitamin D3 help give you strong bones and teeth.
Calcium is not included in Elan's WLS supplements (
Compass,
Believe or
Supreme products) because calcium interferes with iron absorption.
IMPORTANT: If you also use Elan's Compass, Believe or Supreme products, do not take the Calcium vital tablets at the same time as your Compass, Believe or Supreme products. There should be at least 2 hours between the intake of these supplements so that your body has enough time to absorb the iron properly.
