Can I take vitamins without a meal?!


Question: Can I take vitamins without a meal?
Can I take vitamins without a meal? Why do most vitamins say to take with a meal? If I take a vitamin without a meal does this mean the vitamin won't absorb into my body or do they just suggest you take it with a meal because vitamins can uspet your stomach. The reason why I ask because I'm taking a vitamin twice a day but I can't always remember to eat it with a meal. Maybe one of the vitamins I will, but the other I just may want to take. Is it a big deal if I take my vitamins on an empty stomach? Thanks

Both of your thoughts are right. The vitamins are not absorbed as well without food in the stomach and there is also a possibility of causing upset stomach. However, I have taken a multivitamin for years now and have been guilty to be running out of the door with only a coffee. It has never upset my stomach (knock on wood!), and perhaps on those days it wasn't absorbed as well. But what can ya do?! :)
