Assessment of Preoperative Multivitamin Use on the Impact on Micronutrient Deficiencies in Patients with Obesity Prior to Metabolic Bariatric Surgery
Micronutrient deficiencies are prevalent in patients with obesity. Preoperative specialized multivitamin supplementation effectively reduces key deficiencies, particularly in iron, folic acid, and vitamin D. Future research should address residual deficiencies and evaluate long-term outcomes of prolonged supplementation.
