Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

The label on our eStore's Bariatric Advantage's Chewable Multiformula says calcium citrate.

Yeah Boots, I was taking the Viactiv in the beginning but my ARNP told me to stop them and get the citrate. With our absorbtion problems, the citrate is much better for us. I dont want another chewable one, but the chews. When I was taking them, it was like a piece of candy and tasted so wonderful.
