THE BEST TIME TO TAKE VITAMINS?

It is advised to take up your Vitamins and supplements after a meal. This is because vitamins are better absorbed after food, and you should also make sure to swallowed it with water ( preferably plain drinking water ). You should avoid taking the Vitamins and supplements with tea due to the element of Tanine in the drink that can reduce the absorption of minerals like iron.

Therefore, if you’re taking your vitamins and supplements once a day, it is better for you take take it after breakfast or dinner. you shouldn’t try taking vitamins on an empty stomach because some vitamins like Vit C are highly acidic and could cause you reflux and nausea that eventually leads to vomiting and an upset stomach.

It is rather advisable to stagger your intake of Vitamins and supplements because some vitamins like Vit C and Vit C are easily and rapidly excreted in urine. So, rather than taking all those in one gulp after a meal, a smaller dose per meal can help you to maintain the highest consistent level and brings out the effectiveness.

P.S: Maybe you should start buying those vitamins that comes in smaller doses to be taken a few times daily.
