When Is the Best Time to Take Vitamins?
The best time to take many vitamins and minerals is in the morning, with a meal. However, there are a few supplements that may help you sleep better when taken shortly before bedtime. Therefore, the best time for you to take your vitamins will depend on exactly which vitamins you’re taking, and on the health effects you hope to gain from taking them.
Vitamins that may be better when taken in the morning include:
- Vitamin C
- Certain B vitamins
- Vitamin D
Vitamins and supplements that may be better when taken in the evening, close to bedtime, include:
- Vitamin B-3 (niacin)
- Magnesium
