IMPORTANT: Sleeve and calcium update
A new update on nutrition and sleeve gastrectomy has recommended 1200-1500mg daily calcium intake from food and supplement combined for people with a sleeve. Previous recommendations were 1700mg. The upper range for women 51yrs + and men 70+ yrs.
Consuming 3 serves of dairy foods per day will get you to 1000mg and 250-500mg calcium citrate supplement will top you up ie. 1-2 citrical tablets or ¼-1/2 sachet of Calvid.
