So I droped an email to Lynnda and Mike adking about buying BA vit and min in the UK... Pointed to the BA website and then the UK site.

To buy 90 cinamon calcium citrate chewables  from the BA UK site  £21:99 plus shipping
To buy cinamon calcium citrate chewables  from the BA US site  $22:95 plus shipping

thats a difference of almost $12.00 on a single pack.  Multiply that up by all the vitamin mineral needs of an about to be new freak and that is possitively scary.

any suggestions short of opening up as a distributor in the UK???
thanks in advance
Annie

Annie - I suggest you send a private email to Diane, our resident UK freak, who is very good about taking her vitamins, but she's had to find alternatives. Her screen name is greebo115. Hope she can help you!

I sent an email to Ed to see if he can chime in here.  I know that Tom has been spending a lot of time in the UK visiting hospitals and doctors offices.  Want to find out if maybe there are practices selling BA locally so you can get out of paying shipping. 

Hopefully Ed chimes in here soon... :-)

Hi there,

  Sorry for the late Reply.  We do ship to the UK right now from the US, so there is somewhat of a higher than normal shipping charges.  But please note our CEO is working hard he has been traveling to Europe to open up distribution there to make it much more affordable shipping wise to all our customers there.  We have a Customer Service Rep also in Europe her name is Barbara and her email address is b.handler@bariatricadvantage.com   Send her an email and I am sure she can assist you further. Thank you.
