You need fat to absorb vitamin d, right? Assuming that's correct, what's a good amount to make sure I take the vit d with? For example, is it enough to take with my fish oil (could be 3-5 grams total fat), or do I need more like 10-15? Or is it overstated and taking it by itself is probably fine?

With a rational, balanced diet, these things take care of themselves without any obsessive micromanagement required. Follow the dietary fat recommendations in the stickies.

This reminds me of the whey debate between an 'empty stomach' and a 'full stomach' and just how fast it hits the body. Things I wouldn't worry about on a balanced diet. Besides, I thought you practiced keto? You should have plenty fat to calm any worries.

Most fat solubale vitaming have "take with a meal" on the directions.
Why not just follow them?The most important aspect of weight training; whether for the athlete, bodybuilder, or average person is to better ones health and ability without injury. - Bill Pearl

Yea, fat intake is plenty on a daily basis, but I usually consume most of my calories later in the day at home, and I keep my vitamin D at work.Originally Posted by xJellyBirdx
Sometimes I forget. So say I haven't eaten in 3 hours and I'm not gonna eat for another 3 hours. Should I take it or wait? The suppversity post above seems to imply this does matter.Originally Posted by EjnarKolinkar

In terms of absorption it wont matter much, but some vitamins say to take with a meal because they can cause upset stomach if taken without food.Originally Posted by saw7988

I was going to ask a similar question for somebody doing IF and some multivitamins require you to take like 3 pills each day, if you don't want to take 3 in one go and want to spread them out im interested in how much fat you would need to ingest with them.
