(Helpful Tip) The best time to take supplements

The timing of taking supplements varies depending on their nutritional components.

 

​

 

It varies depending on the supplement, such as before or after meals.

 

With the information I am providing today

 

The correct way to take the supplements you are consuming

 

Please check the dosage instructions.

 

​

 

*Generally, most dietary supplements are

 

To facilitate proper absorption, such as digestion of food and waste.

 

It is better to take it after meals.

 

 

Supplements good on an empty stomach

 

This is a probiotic that I always take on an empty stomach in the morning. The whole family is taking it.

 

1. Probiotics

​

 

It can also help facilitate smooth bowel movements.

 

Many people take probiotics carefully!

 

​

 

Please take it when you think of it.

 

Are you taking it after meals?

 

​

 

Probiotics are the supplements most vulnerable to stomach acid.

 

Eating time is important.

 

The morning fasting period after waking up during the day

 

Because stomach acid is at its lowest, during fasting in the morning

 

Probiotics survive and reach the intestines

 

The probability of reaching is the highest.

 

​

 

2. Arginine

 

​

Arginine should be taken on an empty stomach.

 

Although absorption rate is good, for the purpose of improving athletic ability

 

If you take arginine, before exercise

 

It is recommended to take it 30 minutes to 1 hour before.

 

​

 

I donated blood last April, but since then I had a blood test and found out I have iron deficiency, so I can't donate blood anymore.ㅠㅠ

So these days, I especially take it on an empty stomach in the morning and evening.

 

3. Iron

​

 

People with anemia often take it.

 

Iron is absorbed well when taken on an empty stomach.

 

It is effective.

 

​

 

Additionally, iron interacts with calcium and magnesium.

 

Please avoid consuming together, as absorption may be impaired.

 

​

 

after meals

 

 

Omega-3 is a supplement taken with the belief that it is good for the body.

 

 

1. Omega-3, Krill Oil

 

​

Essential supplement Omega-3 reduces inflammation in the body

 

It lowers the figures and promotes smooth blood circulation.

 

It also particularly helps with eye health, memory, and brain health.

 

​

 

However, if the fishy taste of omega-3 is severe

 

It may have deteriorated, so you need to check.

 

​

 

2. Calcium

 

​

Forms bones and teeth and helps blood clotting

 

Calcium is the most important mineral supplement for the human body.

 

Calcium should be taken during or after meals.

 

It is best to eat it immediately.

 

​

 

Impakta-min is a supplement that my husband takes better than I do.

It's best to eat this after breakfast.

Please do not eat late in the afternoon~

This is a supplement that the pharmacist recommended for breakfast.

 

 

3. Vitamin C, Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K)

 

​ 

 

Supplements that are good to take together

 

Calcium and magnesium are the best match.

 

Calcium and iron are said to be the worst match.

 

​

 

Vitamin D that helps with calcium absorption

 

Magnesium's action is necessary for activation.

 

This maximizes each other's effects, but

 

On the other hand, calcium and iron share the same absorption pathway.

 

Instead of competing to be absorbed by each other, it actually...

 

It may result in a decrease in absorption rate.

 

​

 

So, iron should be taken on an empty stomach before meals.

 

Calcium is best taken after meals because it is acidic.

 

Eating on an empty stomach may cause heartburn.

 

​

 

If you consumed fat components during a meal

 

Take fat-soluble vitamins during or after meals.

 

It is good to eat.

There are separate supplements to take on an empty stomach and after a meal~

Since you're taking supplements anyway, I hope you take them properly divided before and after meals to ensure they are well absorbed by your body.

 

As a mother, taking care of my family's health, I give my children probiotics and iron supplements before meals.

After meals, I take vitamins, omega-3, and magnesium.

And I am also taking COQ10.
