What is the best time to take a multivitamin? Night/day, once a week/day, on a full/empty stomach?

Question

I am trying to stay healthy, and one of the first steps I am taking is to take a multivitamin. It's nothing fancy, just equate multivitamin supplements. Right now, I am just taking half of one(they are huge!) every night. Is that best? Is that too/not often enough? What do you do? Thanks for your help!

That's just the thing! The label doesn't say anything except nutritional facts, that's why i came here to ask.

Thank you Maryam!

Answer 1

name of multivitamin doesn't matter

take before eating

if u take before dinner it will jump start your metabolism, so if you want to burn more calories while asleep do that..

you should take one every 24 hours

Answer 2

It does not matter at what time of the day you eat it, as long as you eat it around the same time every day. Your body will get used to it and will absorb it better when there is a regular time you take them. As for the full/empty stomach thing, I've heard it both ways. Some say eating it on a full stomach will help absorb it better, others say the same on an empty stomach. I've asked my doc this before and she said it's up to you, but if you have a sensitive stomach, take it with food. And congrats on trying to get healthy!

Answer 3

If you're going to take a vitamin, then it's suggested you stay away from 'store brand' products, as they are known to contain fillers and poorer quality vitamins and minerals.
That's why they're much cheaper in some cases.
If I may suggest a vitamin, go with Centrum with minerals.
And take it in the morning as the whole idea behind them is to give your day a 'boost' that will last through the day.

Answer 4

I take my multi vitamin with my breakfast, I tried taking it at night but found I would become ravenous during the night and had t eat... I think taking it with a meal facilitated the absorption of the vitamins and minerals without making me hungry.

Also when taking vitamins at night I would often feel nauseated.

Hope this helps
