With the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care investing $75 Million over the past three years, the number of people having Bariatric surgery grows larger with each passing day. The dietary needs of such patients requires ongoing vitamin and mineral supplementation. However, our altered digestive tract is not well suited to the currently available mulitvitamins and supplements provided in your pharmacies. We ask that you start to carry the bariatric specific vitamins and supplements Bariatric Advantage (Irvine, California) and Celebrate Vitamins (Nashua Nutrition-Nashua, New Hampshire) in all your franchises in Ontario as soon as possible. Sincerely, The Community of Bariatric Patients of Southern Ontario www.cbpso.weebly.com
