Vitamin time should also be taken at the right time of the day.
Like anything else, timing is also everything when it comes to taking your vitamins and supplements.
We are sharing this video to help you maximize the powerful health benefits of taking the vitamins and supplements at the right time of the day.
Vitamin Time: Morning Supplements to Drink
Probiotics
Probiotics are best taken in the morning on an empty stomach.
When the stomach is empty, digestive activity is quiet and stomach acid and pH balance are relatively low, thus increasing the chances for the helpful microorganisms to thrive.
Iron
Iron is also best absorbed in the morning also on an empty stomach. Caffeine, dairy, and calcium can negatively affect absorption.
So, it’s best to avoid these for several hours after taking iron.
Multivitamins
Take multivitamins with your first meal. In the morning!
As multivitamins contain both water and fat soluble vitamins, be sure also to include some healthy fats with your meal for optimal absorption.
Noontime vitamins
Likewise, you should take CoQ10 at lunchtime with a meal that contains dietary fats.
Avoid taking CoQ10 late in the day so it doesn’t disturb your sleep.
Vitamin D
You should also take Vitamin D with a meal that contains dietary fats. Vitamin D can negatively affect a child’s sleep.
So, lunchtime is also a good time to get your Vitamin D.
Iodine
You should take iodine daily. Kelp tablets taken with lunch may boost midday energy levels.
Vitamin K
You can also take Vitamin K together with dietary fats. Ideally, you should take it in the middle of the day.
Nighttime supplements
Fish oil
Important to support many aspects of health, you should also take fish oil with the main meal like dinner to aid absorption.
Calcium
Calcium aids nerve transmission and muscle function. But in order to get the full benefit, take calcium in the evening along with magnesium.
Magnesium
Magnesium has a calming effect on the muscles and nervous system and may aid restful sleep.
