several vitamins at once ? Posted: 09-30-08 14:15pm
I currently take a 1000 mg fish body oil
pill, 500mg of calcium, and a "basic
antioxidant" from GNC all at once. Is this
safe and effective or should I be dividing
them up with different meals.
I usually alternate days, on the days I
don't take the basic antioxidant I take a
hair skin and nails multi vitamin. But I
still take this at the same time as the
others.
Any feedback would be awesome! Thanks!

I don't see any interactions in the above
mentioned items. It may depend on the
time you take those supplements as to
efficiency and bioavailability in
absorbing them, which might cause
complications. For example, taking
calcium may reduce the efficiency of your
iron absorption, if you eat a meal when
taking the calcium.
However, it would be best to talk to a
nutrition/dietitian or your physician if
you are especially worried. They would be
best suited towards managing a diet plan
for optimal effectiveness.
