Newbie Here! I Am Confused

[seymone]

Is it better to take vitamins at night? Or is it better to stagger the doses?

Good question, cuz I wanna know too. CandyC said that she takes hers at night, dont remember why, though.erplexed

If I want to go to sleep, I can't take them at night. I bet they benefit the body more, though

i heard opposite of that though. but my vitamin calls for me to take it three times a day so no matter what i am getting it all times.

I have a sensitive tummy (ulcers), so I stagger mine. During the first full meal of the day (not necessarily breakfast) I take chromium picolinate. About 10 minutes after finishing, I take my multi-vitamin and vitamin E capsule.

During dinner, I take MegaCleanse & acidophilus capsules. 10 minutes after finishing I take flax oil capsule.

My body doesn't like to process too many supplements at once. I have a slow metabolism, everyting that goes in my belly takes its sweet time to process.

Side effects I've had from taking them all at once was: getting sleepy (temporarily threw my blood sugar out of whack), nausea, painful gas, pain at ulcer sites (if you have ulcers you know exactly how many and where) and loud digestion (growling stomach). erplexed

I don't know if it's better to take them at certain times of the day. Like our hair regimes, I imagine different things work for different people. HTH!
