Generally, timing matters because of its connection to the types of vitamins and foods we eat at a particular time.
The type of vitamins matter because some vitamins, like B12, give energy, so they are best taken in the morning. Other types, such as magnesium, may promote sleep, so they are best taken in the evening, close to bedtime.
On the other hand, the type of food matters because vitamins are either water-soluble or fat-soluble. Water-soluble vitamins, like vitamin B6, are best absorbed in an empty stomach with a glass of water. In contrast, fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamins A, D, E, and K, are best absorbed when taken with foods that contain fat.
