The Compass products are specially developed for people who have undergone a gastric bypass. In a gastric bypass, your stomach is reduced in size, and a part of the intestines is rerouted or bypassed. As a result, you will eat less, and your body will absorb fewer nutrients. The bariatric surgery is the start of a new life and a step towards a healthier lifestyle. After undergoing a gastric bypass, your body does not receive enough nutrients to keep you feeling fit without extra supplements. The Compass products ensure that you still receive sufficient vitamins and minerals daily as a supplement to your diet after your gastric bypass.<\/p>\n

One significant advantage of Elan’s Compass capsules is that the capsules are smaller in size (size 0) compared to similar capsules from other providers (size 00, such as the WLS Forte capsules from FitForMe). This may seem like a small difference at first glance, but this makes the Compass capsules easier to take and leads to fewer complaints such as nausea or other stomach and\/or abdominal complaints. At Elan, we pay a lot of attention to the tolerance of our products because, after your sleeve gastrectomy or gastric band surgery, you must continue to take a WLS\/bariatric supplement daily for life to prevent vitamin and\/or mineral deficiencies. Elan is therefore very proud of the fact that Elan has succeeded in developing a size 0 capsule containing all the daily required vitamins and minerals in the correct dosage after a gastric bypass.<\/p>\n

Rapid Release Technology<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Elan’s Compass capsules have long been known for their excellent tolerance. This significant advantage of the Compass capsules is due to the capsules being smaller than the capsules of comparable providers (such as the WLS Forte capsules from FitForMe). This makes Elan’s Compass capsules easier to take and leads to fewer stomach and abdominal complaints (such as nausea). Given that you must continue to take a WLS\/bariatric supplement daily for life after your gastric bypass to prevent vitamin and\/or mineral deficiencies, we at Elan continue to strive daily to make the tolerance of our products as optimal as possible.<\/p>\n

Elan’s Compass tablets with Rapid Release Technology have a comparable disintegration time to the Compass capsules. This is, of course, of great importance to prevent vitamin and\/or mineral deficiencies after your gastric bypass. The Compass tablets are neutral in taste and smell. Due to the smaller size and smooth coating, the Compass tablets are even easier to take than the Compass capsules. Not to mention, they are easier to take compared to similar capsules from other providers, such as the WLS Forte capsules from FitForMe.<\/p>\n

The trial package contains 2 Compass capsules, 2 Compass tablets, and 2 Compass chewable tablets. Elan’s Compass products are high-quality nutritional supplements designed to meet your daily needs for vitamins and minerals. The dosage of the Compass products is based on the most recent scientific literature to meet your daily needs as accurately as possible and to ensure the perfect individual adjustment. The ingredients in the Compass products are, where possible, natural and always well-absorbable by your body. The Compass tablets are neutral in taste. The Compass chewable tablets have a fresh and delicious strawberry flavor.<\/p>\n

Calcium intake<\/strong><\/h5>\n

After your weight loss surgery, you will also get less calcium, and your body really cannot do without calcium! Calcium is an important nutrient that helps maintain strong bones and teeth and contributes to the normal functioning of your muscles. Elan has specially developed the Calcium Chew chewable tablets and the Calcium Vital tablets for people who have undergone weight loss surgery to supplement your daily needs. Both the Calcium Chew chewable tablets and the Calcium Vital tablets contain calcium citrate because this form of calcium is well absorbed by your body. In addition, vitamin D3 is added to the Calcium Chew chewable tablets and the Calcium Vital tablets, which increases calcium absorption in your bones. Calcium and vitamin D3 contribute to maintaining strong bones and teeth. The trial package contains 2 Calcium Chew chewable tablets and 2 Calcium Vital tablets.<\/p>\n

The required amount of calcium depends on your surgery. According to the internationally recognized guidelines of the scientific associations (ASMBS and IFSO), we advise you to take at least 1,200 – 1,500 mg per day. It is also important to take a maximum of 500 milligrams of calcium at a time so that your body has the opportunity and time to absorb the ingested calcium. For the best advice after your surgery and in your personal situation, we recommend contacting your healthcare provider.<\/p>\n

Calcium is not included in Elan’s WLS products because calcium inhibits the absorption of iron.<\/p>\n

Important<\/strong><\/h5>\n

If you are also using the Calcium Vital tablets or the Calcium Chew chewable tablets, take them at a different time than the Compass capsule, Compass tablet, and Ferro Vital tablet. There should be at least 2 hours between taking the Calcium Vital tablet or the Calcium Chew chewable tablet and your Compass capsule, Compass tablet, and Ferro Vital tablet so that your body has enough time to absorb the iron properly.<\/p>\n
