B vites, drinking - important to all

[Guest guest]

Lori, et al -

This is true, but the much bigger danger is from not taking a good B COmplex

capsule. The Bs are all water soluble, and are depleted fairly rapidly. They

are also primarily absorbed in the duodenum, which we've had bypassed. We are

all at risk for B vite deficiencies and several of them (B1 included) can

causing disabling neurological damage.

I experienced it, unrelated to WLS. A couple of local WLS gals have had damage,

very early on. BUt it could happen at any time.

Just because you don't drink does *not* mean that you are safe. Take a good B

Complex cap (Stress B, or B100) to protect your brains, and nerves. Please.

from B1.
