How do you take your vitamins, I don't want it to be difficult. If there is a easy way can you tell me, is there a certain time that I take the iron ? this is all new to me. I would love to take a nap but it seems like there is no time for it.

Well, we need to take calcium citrate three or four times a day because we need 1500 to 2000 mg and can only absorb about 500 mg at a time.  We also need to take iron at least two hours away from calcium.  I do this:

Breakfast - multi, calcium citrate, D3, vitamin A, zinc (I take the D3, A and zinc based on my labs)

Lunch - calcium citrate

Dinner - multi, calcium citrate

Bedtime - iron, vitamin C

I do B12 shots every other week but if you use a sublingual, you can take it anytime.
