The supplements people should take daily can vary based on individual needs, diet, and health goals. However, there are a few that many people might benefit from, along with some general timing guidelines:
1. Multivitamin
Why: Covers daily micronutrient gaps in the diet.
When: With breakfast or lunch to aid absorption, as vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble and need to be taken with food that contains fat.

2. Vitamin D
Why: Supports bone health, immune function, and mood regulation.
When: With a meal that contains fat (breakfast or lunch). Morning is often preferred to avoid any potential impact on sleep.
