Gotta Remember To Take the Vitamins on a Full Stomach

Oops, I did it again. I've always had a problem with vitamins. They make me sick unless I take them on a full stomach. But I recently bought Calcium soft-chews in chocolate because I was tired of taking "pills" all the time. It didn't register with me that they were vitamins/supplements because they were a chew. So this morning I grabbed two of them and ate them on an empty stomach and soon regretted it. When will I ever learn?

Fortunately, knock on wood, that doesn't bother me. I hope you remember to eat something next time.

From your first line , I got stuck by remembering one song of Britney Spears with that title... that came in my mind suddenly. May be you have recovered faster so that It didn't bother you much of taking them on empty stomach.some deep experience might be needed for strong commitment and then change...hope you don't want to get that.

Oh yeah, that’s an uncomfortable mistake. I just forget to wait four hours after taking my thyroid medication before I take the vitamins.

The only vitamin that ever really upset my stomach was a multivitamin. Seems I can take pretty much anything else on an empty stomach just fine.
