Standard Process Vitamins

What are effects of taking vitamins/supplements on an empty stomach? Any danger/lack of effectiveness?

Instructions say to take vitamin (B12) and supplement (prostate health) with meals. Not always near food so following these instructions not always possible.

1. i think it can just cause some stomach irritation. if there's no food i would say just try to have something else with calories in it, like milk or a few cracker.
2. For the most part it probably doesn't matter if you take your supplement with or without food. Some vitamins can cause nausea if they are taken without food. Food also can help with the absorption unless they are heavy greasy meals. Try and take the supplements with food as often as you can and try to limit the times that you take them without food.
