There are also vitamins that may cause side effects if taken together. [사진=게티이미지뱅크]Vitamins and supplements fill in nutritional gaps in your diet. However, eating too much is not good. Especially when taken together, they may cause side effects. The Indian English-language magazine ‘Times of India’ introduced vitamins and supplements that should not be taken together.

Fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins

Fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin D, are best absorbed when taken with food because they dissolve in fat. On the other hand, water-soluble vitamins such as vitamin C and B12 are dissolved in water and are generally absorbed more effectively on an empty stomach. Therefore, taking fat-soluble vitamins and water-soluble vitamins together may interfere with the absorption process and reduce their effectiveness.

calcium and iron

If calcium and iron are taken together, calcium interferes with the absorption of iron, making it less effective. To maximize the effectiveness of both supplements, it is recommended to take them at least 2 hours apart. An easy way to remember is to take one in the morning and one in the evening for optimal absorption.

zinc and copper

Zinc and copper are nutrients that compete for absorption in the body. Therefore, if taken together, the effectiveness may be reduced. To prevent this, choose a supplement that provides a balanced ratio of zinc and copper, or stagger your intake by taking it at least two hours apart.

Magnesium and Calcium

Magnesium and calcium are both essential for bone health and muscle function, but when taken together, they can interfere with each other’s absorption. To avoid this interference, you can stagger magnesium and calcium supplements at different times of the day.

Vitamin C and Vitamin B12

Excessive intake of vitamin C can interfere with the absorption and metabolism of vitamin B12. To utilize these nutrients optimally, it is best to consume them separately or space them at least 2 hours apart.
