Do you have to take vitamins for the rest of your life after gastric sleeve?

I will have gastric sleeve surgery. Do you have to take vitamins for the rest of your life after gastric sleeve?

1 Answer

No, I don't think this is necessary as a general rule for a sleeve surgery. The sleeve prevents you from overeating but it does not stop you from absorbing nutrients and vitamins in the normal way in your small intestine.
