Bari Life Complete Bariatric Multivitamin with Iron - Dietary Supplement Powder Mix, Calcium Citrate, Multivitamin, Iron - Bariatric Vitamins for Gastric Sleeve Patients (Watermelon, 60 Servings)

I have never had any sort of surgery for weight loss, but I have a sensitive stomach and absorption issues due to acid reflux and SIBO. And my experience since being diagnosed with these conditions is it is hard to supplement because either I likely will not absorb all of the nutrients in pill form, or it generally upsets one of my conditions. I'm not sure if it is because this is finely ground to the point it dissolves so well in water, but I've had no issues with this. I occasionally like to intermittent fast, which helps to improve my symptoms, but means less food for nutrients. I'll throw this in a 36oz water bottle with high PH water (helps reflux) and it dissolves just fine after a few shakes. I'll likely continue using this for a while. Great product.I did want to add that if people find the taste off putting, using more water and another flavor mix helps. I usually mix it in 36oz of water and can't taste much of it. If I want actual flavor since it is mostly diluted at this point, I'll add a zero sugar Body Armour drink mix or some sort of sugar free alternative. I found grape and Strawberry kiwi to mix well in it, and I've used Stur's fruit punch stevia drops too.

I have been using these vitamins for several years. My favorite was the lemonade but it seems they are no longer available. Now, with my last purchase of the watermelon, it seems the vitamins have been reformulated. The taste is different, the color quickly turns from pink to an unappealing brown when stirred and they are much grittier tasting than before. It seems that less of the mixture dissolves and it tastes like fine grit as you drink them. I have always had good results with this type of vitamins and have never had any deficiencies, but I don't know if I can make myself drink them. I'm not sure what changed, but they are different.

The product arrived in good condition and quickly. I have used this before and you receive a good size for the price. It tastes good, does not upset my stomach, and is effective. Will continue to order.

Not the best tasting

I really tried to enjoy this because I love everything else I’ve bought from this brand…but the taste is horrible and way too chalky. 2 stars for the ease of getting all the nutrition in, though

I have been using this product for years and now I am pleased I can get it here on Amazon.

The taste is not that bad but it is a bit grainy. It does not seem to dissolve totally. I haven’t tried to use less water yet but I will. Stirring in 8 oz of water and trying to drink it in four huge gulps isn’t possible. Once it sits for a bit? It turns muddy looking and loses its pink tint. It’s ugly looking. But. I drink it as quickly as possible and I would recommend it over the chewables.

The taste is absolutely awful. I tried taking it a few times and it's impossible to mask the flavor.
