Combining Beauty Gummies with My Morning Coffee - Safe?
Hey everyone! I just started taking these new Beauty Gummies (biotin & collagen). I usually have a cup of coffee in the morning. Can I take the gummy with my coffee? Will it mess with absorption or anything? Thanks!
I'm no expert, but I take my vitamins with tea all the time. I think caffeine might mess with absorption of some nutrients, but for gummies it's probably fine. Maybe wait 30 min? Also, try pairing with a vitamin C rich fruit for better collagen absorption!
Great question! Coffee can inhibit absorption of certain vitamins (like B vitamins), but biotin and collagen are generally fine. However, it's best to take gummies with food to avoid stomach upset. I'd suggest taking them right before or after your coffee, not with it. Also, stay hydrated!
As a fitness pro, I'd say timing matters. Coffee increases metabolism but also acidity which might degrade some ingredients. I take my gummies with my post-workout smoothie, not coffee. If you must, take with a light breakfast and skip the coffee for 30 mins. Just my 2 cents!
