WHEN TO TAKE VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS

Vitamins that should be taken by noon:
Vitamin B1: Aids metabolism and supports the nervous system.
Vitamin B12: Used to create red blood cells and help you relax you during times of anxiety.
Iron: Helps your body transfer oxygen and aids the immune system.
Q10: Prevents heart disease and improves sexual function.
Vitamin C: Helps in creating new tissue and keep your teeth and immune system strong.

Each of these 5 vitamins has a strong stimulating effect on the body, so taking them in the morning will keep you full of energy for the rest of the day. Vitamin C is known to help in the absorption of iron, so it is recommended to take the two together, or eat food rich with one if you are taking a pill of the other.


Vitamins that should be taken with healthy fats:
Vitamin A: Needed to keep your skin, eyesight and bladder healthy.
Vitamin E: Protects the cell membranes and reduces the risk of heart problems.
Vitamin D: Helps prevent Diabetes and some types of Cancer.
Vitamin K: Helps keep your bones healthy and blood vessels strong.
Lycopene: Lowers the risk of heart and blood diseases, as well as some types of Cancer.
Lutein: Keeps your eyes healthy and protects you from Colon Cancer.

These are all fat soluble vitamins, and need to be taken around the same time you eat certain fatty foods to be properly absorbed into your body. Ask your doctor which foods are best for you to eat while taking these vitamins.
IMPORTANT: Be careful with vitamin K and vitamin E interactions. Large quantities of vitamin E can interfere with the ability of your body to utilize vitamin K.

What should be taken during the evening?
Magnesium: Required for healthy muscle activity and for most of the "construction" your body does.
Calcium: Essential for strong bones and many body activities.

Both of these important minerals are used by our body when we rest. They also help relax your body and deal with some sleep disorders.
 IMPORTANT:  Do not take Iron supplements the same time you take calcium as they may act against each other so that neither is properly absorbed. Wait about 4 hours between each one to make sure you get all the health benefits you need. 
What shouldn't you have after taking vitamins?
Coffee, tea and many kinds of sweet soda drinks can hinder your ability to fully absorb the vitamins and minerals from your food supplements. Take the pills with either water or natural juices, and do your best to avoid other drinks for at least two hours. 

Take Vitamins regularly
Our bodies are always using vitamins and minerals and always clean themselves so more food and nutrients will be available for use. Taking vitamin pills in isolation or without any regularity won't have a real impact on your health. You need to keep a steady flow of whatever it is you are taking, so you will have a good cycle of proper absorption and digestion. Speak with your doctor about how many times you should take each of your vitamin pills, and for how long.
Read the RDA
Too much of a good thing might not always be so good. The recommended daily dose of vitamins is generally found on the labels and information booklets that come with multivitamins.  Since many of the foods we eat today are already full of nutrients, you need to know which foods you might need to stop eating when taking certain vitamins.
