Iron deficiency is one of the most common deficiencies seen with patients of all bariatric procedure types.

ASMBS guidelines call for a minimum of 18 mg of iron per day for patients of all bariatric procedure types, and many female patients need 45-60 mg per day.1

Iron supplements should include vitamin C to help absorption of iron.* Iron and calcium should be taken two hours apart. Calcium has been shown to reduce iron absorption after a meal by 50-60%.

Iron carries oxygen and plays a critical role in enzyme functions, immune function, growth, and development.*
