Maximize your vitamin absorption


Do you take multivitamins or other supplements to enhance your diet? If so, did you know you can help maximize their absorption by taking them with a meal? Food increases absorption and minimizes the chance the vitamin pills will upset your stomach.

To help making taking your multivitamin a habit (many people have multivitamins but don't take them), take it with the same meal everyday.

If you take them with breakfast, don't wash them down with coffee though. Caffeine can prevent absorption of some vitamins & minerals.
