Dumb question, but don't vitamins need to be taken with food to be metabolized?
Question:
Answers:
It depends on the vitamins, as well as what other vitamins or minerals you need to make those vitamins effective and readily absorbed, for instance, Vitamin C is necessary for the absorption of Iron. The best place to get vitamins is in food, however supplements may be necessary, it is generally best that you eat as well as take them... and not use the bottled water and vitamins to loose weight... you will not remain healthy.
No, not at all. vitamins dont need to be metabolized or anything, just take them, and vitamin water is good for you.
no, but taking them with food as with any supplement or medication does help.
Some vitamins do, because they're only fat soluble. Notable, Vitamins A, D, K and E. Too much of these can also be toxic.
Most other vitamins are water-soluble, like (all) B vitamins and C, so putting them into water works quite well.
A single multi vitamin on an otherwise empty stomach would be a little silly.
U r right. U take them only when prescribed.
