what is the best hour of time to take vitamins?

Hi uchihaseymour! My vitamin bottle says to take the vitamins together with food. Most doctors I encounter also have the same advice. I guess it's because when we eat, our digestive system is at its optimum performance so when we take the vitamins together with our meal, the vitamins are better digested :) And I think it's much better to take it during breakfast, but I guess the bottom line is that you take it with a meal; doesn't matter whether it's with breakfast, lunch or dinner :)

The best time to take vitamins is in the morning because you going to start your day you need to be active. Our body needs vitamins to function well the whole day so we have endurance.

most people take them in the morning then only drink coffee or tea, juice and all that does id flush them out an hour afterwards in your urine thats why it is so yellow or orange. the best time to take them is before a meal to get the maximum effect. if your going to take them in the morning make sure you eat a good meal but preferably none with lots of sugar so you wont crash while in school when the sugar wears off, the longer in your system the better try taking them after you eat at nite then you'll be sleeping on them all nite and wont urinate them out

Hello. Try taking then on lunch time. See if it is better for you. When I had a nutritionist, she used to tell me to take some omega 3 pills at lunch time, but it may e different for other kind of vitamins. To completely clarify your question, you should visit one :p

For me i drink vitamins when i will go to bed, because there are some vitamins that can cause dizziness, drowsiness.Its good at night because when i drink vitamins my sleep is good specially for iron vitamins.

I never thought there could be any specific time for them.

Hi there and smile! Many vitamins are best ingested with food, so taking them at meal time is advised. It's easy to remember to take vitamins with meals, since you are eating and drinking at that time, anyway. Fat-soluble vitamins need fat in order to be absorbed, so they should always be taken with meals that contain fat. Fat-soluble vitamins include vitamins A, vitamin D, vitamin E and vitamin K. Vitamin C lasts only a few hours in the bloodstream. It should be repeated every three hours for best results, or the entire dose should be divided up to take a third with each meal. Fiber is best ingested in the morning upon rising. That way it will do its work in the colon without being impeded by food. Fiber can cause vitamins to not absorb, as it can act as a coating to the intestines, so it is best to not take vitamins before fiber. Iron is especially not absorbed well with fiber. Probiotics are taken with meals and sometimes before a meal, usually about 20 minutes. Digestive enzymes are taken with meals as well, for best effect. Stimulating vitamins, such as vitamin C, should not be taken before bedtime, as it can keep a person awake. Happy mylotting.

I think you need to ask your doctor if it's possible to change your brand. Yes, there are vitamins that make you feel drowsy or sleepy. That's the complaint of my teenage daughter. She tried taking Revicon and Enervon C and she feels okay. I'm taking One A Day for Women
