Formulation:

CelebrateONE, CelebrateONE18, CelebrateONE45:

  • Water-Miscible Vitamins A, D and E (WM): We utilize dry, water-mixable forms of vitamins A, D and E to further enhance absorption. That means these nutrients do not have to be ingested with fat to ensure absorption. In contrast to fat-soluble vitamins, as you can find them in many other products on the market.
  • Chelated minerals - Mineral-Chelation means "attaching to". By chelating our minerals to an amino acid (the building block of protein), we have increased the likelihood that these minerals will be absorbed in a low-acid environment.
CALCIUM CITRATE SOFT CHEWS:
    • Our Calcium soft chews are soft, delicious, won’t stick to your teeth and provide calcium citrate (500 mg) and vitamin D3 (500 IU/12.5 mcg) in each serving. This bariatric supplement meets the ASMBS standards of calcium supplementation after weight loss surgery. 
    • Water-miscible vitamins D (WM) We utilize a dry, water-miscible forms of vitamin D to further enhance absorption. That means that this nutrients does not need to be taken with fat to optimize absorption, unlike many fat-soluble vitamins, included in many other brands.
    • The BlenderBottle® GoStak™ is the perfect organizer for your daily bariatric supplement regimen. These portable, compact, and convenient jars can carry up to five days’ worth of your Celebrate supplements. Use it for your daily commute to work, your workout sessions at the gym, or for travel.

    IMPORTANT:

    • The Celebrate Starter Kits help simplify our large supplement catalog. Each kit meets the 2019 ASMBS Guideline for the specific surgery. They should serve as a guideline and in no way substitute for medical advice. Ask your health professional before starting any dietary supplement, and communicate if you experience any side effects.
    • Excess vitamin A intake, beta-carotene or carotenoid forms excepted, may increase the risk of birth defects and may contribute to osteoporosis. Women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant should not exceed 10,000 IU of vitamin A per day, beta-carotene or carotenoid forms excepted, unless instructed to do so by a healthcare practitioner.
    • If you experience persistent nausea, vomiting, gastrointestinal discomfort, or other symptoms, contact your healthcare provider immediately.

    • Patients should follow the instructions of their bariatric surgeon regarding proper supplementation. Proper supplementation should be viewed as an individualized regimen based on each patient’s individual medical history, laboratory studies, and current medication use.
