If we all ate a healthy diet of fruits, vegetables, low salt, low starch, low carbohydrates, and mostly natural foods, taking vitamins would not be necessary, but since Americans as a general rule eat more fat, starch and processed foods than ever before, vitamins are definitely a good thing to add to your routine. The problem is, if you don't take vitamins properly, you may not be getting the full effect of their health benefits. Man made vitamins alone will do very little to improve your health or provide nutritional supplement. It has been proven in research studies that in order for concentrated man-made vitamins to work properly, they must actually bond with or attach to real food vitamins in order to properly be absorbed by the body. Therefore, you can't drink nothing but water and pop vitamins and expect to be healthy. It just doesn't work that way.
Additionally, the human body metabolized at different rates for each person, and even for the same person, the body's metabolism changes during the day. Some people metabolize slowly in the mornings and faster in the evenings and others metabolize the other way around. If you plan to take or are already taking a daily multi vitamin supplement, the best time of day to take that vitamin supplement is likely in the morning, within 30 minutes of eating a healthy breakfast of protein, calcium, and fruit - or: eggs, a glass or milk, and an apple. This will help utilize a multi vitamin to its maximum potential.
However, many people skip or forget or are too rushed to eat a healthy breakfast, so it may be better for you to wait until lunchtime when you can actually take your multi vitamin with a full meal, or close to the time you eat a full meal, so the vitamin is digested and breaks down along with your food. If you are taking vitamins separately, that is, not in a once a day multi vitamin supplement, then different vitamins have been shown to provide better immediate and long term health benefits when taken at the right time for that particular vitamin.
