Product Information
Until recently, no one vitamin, supplement or shake could provide the specific nutritional needs of the Bariatric patient. Doctors could only recommend children's chewable vitamins and a combination of mass market dietary supplements, none of which were truly complete. Patients had no other option but then to take these many combinations throughout the day - ultimately filling their stomachs and leaving little room for healthy meals.
Alvitum has been designed by a team of innovative doctors specializing in surgery, nutrition and general care for the unique absorption requirements of the weight loss surgery patient and candidate. Unlike chewables and shakes, Alvitum is a powder that dissolves in 8oz of water.
Not only is Alvitum a complete supplement, but because patient's take Alvitum with 8oz of water, they keep hydrated. With Alvitum, you get:
- Superior quality ingredients combined specifically for the weight loss patient or any dieter looking to improve nutritional status and cut calories.
- Complete levels of essential vitamins and minerals.
- Easy to take supplementation - great tasting, flavored powders that dissolve well in water.
- No preservatives, food dyes or additives.
Because of Alvitum's unique delivery method - Alvitum absorbs readily upon consumption. Our customers report feeling improved energy and healthy weight loss experiences within 2 - 3 weeks of regularly using Alvitum.
Which Alvitum Phase is right for you?
Phase 1
(Available with or without caffeine) Alvitum Phase 1 was originally designed for the Weight Loss Surgery candidate during the pre-surgery preparation. Weight Loss Surgery candidates are required to lose 10% of their body weight prior to having surgery. Therefore, they are cutting calories significantly before the surgery.
Without the proper supplementation, these candidates are at risk of vitamin and mineral deficiencies. We want these candidates to go into their surgery as healthy as possible - that's why our doctors and nutritionists created Alvitum. In addition, once these candidates do have the surgery, they are required to continue supplementation (referred to as "compliance") for their rest of their life.
Unfortunately, a growing number of patients become "non-compliant" and risk sickness or healing complications. Phase 1 helps Weight Loss Surgery patients practice "compliance" before making the surgical commitment so that they can make supplementation part of their everyday lifestyle. Phase 1 is also perfect for those individuals seeking to maintain healthy nutritional levels while cutting calories via more traditional diet and exercise programs.
Vitamin and mineral supplementation plays a large role in leading a healthy lifestyle. Phase 1 is available with 100mg of caffeine per serving for an added thermogenic boost. This is equal to a cup of coffee.
Phase 2
For Weight Loss Surgery Patients Following gastric bypass surgery, nutrient deficiencies persist and may even worsen over time. Severe calorie restriction and micronutrient deficits, compounded by induced malabsorption from the surgery, leave patients at risk for severe vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Even several years following surgery, many of patients continue to suffer from the effects of low micronutrient intake and poor utilization.
Consequently, it's important to provide a long-term supplement that meets the special needs of the Post Gastric Bypass patient. That's why there's Phase 2, post-surgery Alvitum. Non-filling, easily absorbable and most importantly great tasting, Alvitum is essential nutrition and specifically formulated to boost patient health and help aid in nutrient deficiencies that take place after surgery. Also developed in an easy to use powder, Phase 2 ensures that you're getting the precise amounts of multi-vitamin and minerals needed to recover from surgery as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Because Alvitum isn't filling, you can eat small amounts of some of the foods you want, while still getting the nutrition you need. Unlike the large pills and filling shakes on the market today, Alvitum was designed with your new post surgery stomach in mind. And, since Alvitum can help prevent you from overeating, using Alvitum consistently after surgery can help the weight stay off for good. Alvitum's unique two step formula starts to improve your patient's health before undergoing surgery, to help patients experience better outcomes. Post-surgery Alvitum gives your patients the vitamins and minerals needed to help them recover and face their new future without worry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is The Alvitum System?
A: The Alvitum System is a nutritional supplement formulated in two key phases to boost the bariatric (gastric bypass) patient's health during pre-surgery preparation and post-surgery rapid weight loss. Alvitum is a comprehensive multi-vitamin and mineral powder that dissolves quickly in a small amount of water. It's easy to take, and in addition to providing the nutrients that your patients need, it also helps to keep them hydrated. This gives patients the ability to eat small amounts of foods contained in their new diet while still getting the nutrition they need. Alvitum's unique two step formula starts to improve your patient's health before undergoing surgery, to help patients experience better outcomes. Post-surgery Alvitum gives your patients the vitamins and minerals needed to help them recover and face their new future without worry.
Q: What distinguishes these vitamins from my current daily vitamin or shake?
A: Until recently, no one vitamin, supplement or shake could provide the specific nutritional needs of the Bariatric patient. Doctors could only recommend children's chewable vitamins and a combination of mass market dietary supplements, none of which were truly complete. Patients had no other option but then to take these many combinations throughout the day - ultimately filling their stomachs and leaving little room for healthy meals. Alvitum has been designed by a team of bariatric doctors specializing in bariatric surgery, nutrition and general care for the unique absorption requirements of the Bariatric patient. Unlike chewables and shakes, Alvitum is a powder that dissolves in 8oz of water. Not only is Alvitum a complete supplement, but because patient's take Alvitum with 8oz of water, they keep hydrated.
With Alvitum, you get:
• Superior quality ingredients combined specifically for the Bariatric patient.
• Complete levels of essential vitamins and minerals.
• Easy to take supplementation - great tasting, flavored powders that dissolve well in water.
• No preservatives, food dyes or additives.
Q: Are these vitamins designed for my type of surgery?
A: Yes! The Alvitum Nutrition System has been specifically designed for the gastro-bypass patient by gastro-bypass physicians. Why is Alvitum better for me than a shake or other vitamins? As a weight-loss surgery patient, you'll need nutritional supplementation before and after bariatric surgery. That's because you will lose an average of 60 to 70% of your excess weight during the first 18 to 24 months post-surgery; you'll eat less, and digest more quickly. Nutritional deficiencies can result without supplementation, but the large pills and filling shakes on the market today aren't meant for your smaller, more sensitive stomach.
Q: What is the difference between Phase 1 and Phase 2?
A: Phase 1 & Phase 1C - Pre-Surgery
A comprehensive multi-vitamin and mineral powder that dissolves quickly in a small amount of water, so it's easy to take, and absorbs without making you feel full. Taking Phase 1 before surgery prepares your body with the proper nutrients needs to aid in surgery and recovery. Phase 1C contains 100 mg of the thermogenic ingredient caffeine that's been clinically proven to aid in weight loss. An important factor when considering bariatric surgery is the amount of excess body weight required for a patient to loss prior to their operation. Phase 1C can help you meet your pre-surgery goals.
Phase 2 - Post Surgery
Following gastric bypass surgery, nutrient deficiencies persist and may even worsen over time. Severe calorie restriction and micronutrient deficits, compounded by induced malabsorption from the surgery, leave patients at risk for severe vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Even several years following surgery, many of patients continue to suffer from the effects of low micronutrient intake and poor utilization. Consequently, it's important to provide a long-term supplement that meets the special needs of the Post Gastric Bypass patient. That's why there's Phase 2, post-surgery Alvitum. Non-filling, easily absorbable and most importantly great tasting, Alvitum is essential nutrition and specifically formulated to boost patient health and help aid in nutrient deficiencies that take place after surgery. Also developed in an easy to use powder, Phase 2 ensures that you're getting the precise amounts of multi-vitamin and minerals needed to recover from surgery as quickly and efficiently as possible. Because Alvitum isn't filling, you can eat small amounts of some of the foods you want, while still getting the nutrition you need. Unlike the large pills and filling shakes on the market today, Alvitum was designed with your new post surgery stomach in mind. And, since Alvitum can help prevent you from overeating, using Alvitum consistently after surgery can help the weight stay off for good.
