What forms of vitamin B12 are best for bariatric patients?Updated 24 days ago

Sublingual (under-the-tongue) tablets, nasal sprays, and injections are highly effective forms of B12 for bariatric patients as they bypass the digestive system and are absorbed directly into the bloodstream.

It is challenging to get enough B12 from diet alone after bariatric surgery due to reduced absorption. Supplementation is usually necessary to maintain adequate B12 levels.
