Timings for taking supplements

[Smartypants1]

hi everyone

Ive just received all my new supplements and want to make sure I’ve got my head round what I need to take, when. So from looking at previous posts, am I right in thinking:

First thing - Levothyroxine

With breakfast - b vitamins (start with b12 and a week later add b complex?) and vitamin d

Four hours later - iron

Also, do I need to take magnesium if I’m taking vitamin d? And do I take this in the evening?

Many thanks!

Is vitamin D a mouth spray or tablets

If mouth spray an hour or so after levothyroxine is fine

If tablets, take with main meal of day ….at least 4 hours away from levothyroxine

Only start one supplement at a time

Waiting 10-14 days to assess before adding next one

Yes magnesium recommended too …afternoon or bedtime. Minimum 4 hours away from levothyroxine
