FAQs
Why is Calcium Citrate important after bariatric surgery?
Calcium Citrate is essential for maintaining strong bones and preventing osteoporosis. After bariatric surgery, the ability to absorb calcium can be reduced, making it crucial to supplement the diet with calcium to meet daily needs.
How much calcium should a bariatric patient take after bariatric surgery?
It is generally recommended that bariatric patients take 1,200 to 1,500 mg of calcium citrate daily. Calcium citrate is preferred over other forms of calcium because it is better absorbed in a low-acid environment, which is common after bariatric surgery.
Why Barimelts® Calcium Citrate?
Barimelts® Calcium Citrate comes in delicious, naturally flavored, smooth-dissolving tablets and is formulated with a highly absorbable form of calcium to support strong, healthy bones and a balanced combination of Vitamin D3 and Magnesium to enhance absorption*.
Can bariatric patients take Barimelts® Calcium Citrate with other supplements?
Calcium can interfere with the absorption of certain medications and other supplements, such as iron. Taking calcium supplements at a different time of day than these products is recommended. Always consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
How should a bariatric patient take Barimelts® Calcium Citrate for best results?
Calcium supplements should be taken in divided doses, typically two to three times a day, as the body can only absorb about 500-600 mg of calcium at a time. It's also best to take calcium supplements with meals to enhance absorption.

Q&A
- After bariatric surgery. We’re suppose to get 1500mg of calcium a day. It says serving size 2 equals 500 mg. Does that mean I would have to take 6 a day?
- Hello there, Thank you for reaching out. Our serving size is 2 tablets per day and as indicated in the label each serving size would be 500mg to reach the amount indicated of 1,500mg it would be 6 tablets per day; however, we also encourage all our customers to speak with their healthcare provider as well regarding their dietary supplement needs and potential interactions.
- Where is the sugar coming from? Are you counting the mannitol (sugar alcohol) as the sugar?
- Hello Lindsay, thank you for reaching out. Our products are formulated to utilize the least amount of inactive excipients to ensure product quality and uniformity. Both mannitol and xylitol are used to provide a balance in tablet texture and flavor. There are less than 2 calories per gram in each product serving, which accounts for the total amount of sugar alcohols used per tablet (< 1gram). Hope this helps!
