At what time of day and how should these capsules be taken? — Cod Liver Oil, 60 capsules – OstroVit

Fat-soluble vitamins A and D, as well as omega-3 fatty acids, are absorbed much better in the presence of dietary fats. Therefore the capsules are recommended to be taken during or just after a meal, preferably at a meal that contains fatty foods: for example breakfast with eggs, nuts or avocado, or lunch with meat or fish.

Taking them on an empty stomach is not recommended: it may cause stomach discomfort, and the absorption of the active components will be poorer.

As for the time of day, there are no strict limits. Many people choose the morning or lunchtime, so as not to forget and to make the intake a stable habit. An evening intake is also acceptable if it falls on a full meal.

The capsule form is convenient because the dose is already measured and there is no need to measure out a liquid, which makes it easier to include the supplement in the daily routine. Store the capsules in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight, as fats and fat-soluble vitamins are sensitive to heat and light.

The product is not intended for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women. Those taking other medicines should consult a specialist before starting.
