How to take B12 right way?

[victoria1234]

I would love to learn what is the proper way to take B12? It noted on the bottle: with food. What kind of food will be more suitable?

Also, my daughter has started her iron, combined with Vit C, taking it on evenings. How properly to combine it with the B12?

Thank you

I take sublingual ( under the tongue) B12. It just dissolves in your mouth. You need to make sure you are taking the right type - you want Methylcobalamin. I take mine after breakfast. I'm not taking any thyroid meds just now but I took my vitamins at breakfast along with my blood pressure medicines, my Carbimazole, Vit C,&zinc combined, an A-Z multivitamin and CoQ10.

I never took my thyroxine with those pills, you have to take it with a glass of water and leave a couple of hours between thyroxine and anything else. So I took my thyroxine as soon as the alarm went off - about 05.30, then I would take breakfast at about 07.30- 08.00.

After that I would take my vitamin D spray and B12 on my way out to go to work.

I think you have to take iron a couple of hours away from other medicines and definitely not at the same time as milk / calcium products. I don't take iron but I'm sure someone else who takes it will tell you more.
