Taking prenatal gummies with my morning coffee – safe?
Hey everyone! I just started taking these prenatal gummies (the Nature’s Bounty ones) and I usually have a cup of coffee in the morning. Is it okay to take them together? I’ve heard caffeine can affect absorption of some vitamins. Anyone know?
I take my prenatal gummies with coffee every day and haven’t had issues. But I’ve read that calcium can interfere with iron absorption, so if your gummies have iron, maybe wait an hour. I’m no doctor tho!
I actually mix my prenatal gummy into my morning smoothie sometimes (with coffee too lol). But seriously, I think it's fine as long as you're not taking them with a huge amount of caffeine. Maybe spread them out if you're worried?
Thanks guys! Mine don't have iron, just folic acid and DHA. I'll prob just take them with my coffee and see how it goes. Appreciate the input!
