Dr's office put me on additional Vitamin A--when do you think is the best time of the day to take it? They also put me on B12. Can I take the 2 of them together?
Here's what I'm suppose to have each day
Multi Vitamin
Calcium
Iron
D3
B12
Vitamin A
Any help you can give me as far as a schedule would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
You can take the A and B12 whenever you want.
The schedule I do is like this:
breakfast- multi, calcium citrate, A, B12, D3
lunch- calcium citrate
dinner - multi, calcium
bedtime- iron
Make sure the vitamin A you're taking is either retinol palmitate or retinol acetate, not beta carotene. Also, make sure it's dry, not in oil. Like, it's dry powdery stuff in a capsule rather than one of those football shaped soft gels with oily stuff inside.
Same goes for the D3. It needs to be dry, either a dry tablet or a capsule with powdery stuff inside. And make sure it is D3, not D2.
Make sure your calcium is CITRATE.
