Vitamins with tea

[The_Traveller]

I don't ever get a clear answer if its OK to down multi-vitamins with tea.

I make mild tea ( dishwater tea some call it ) btw.

What about pro-biotics ? can you down this with mild tea ?

I'm not very clued up on these things, but I know that tea inhibits iron absorption for about 20 minutes or so.

A simple Google search gives very clear answers. No, it's not a good idea.

Would surely depend on the kind of tea.

Either way - taking your pills with food is generally a better idea.
What multi-vitamin are you taking?

Yes, green and black tea. Don't know about Rooibos and chamomile and stuff that's not from the Tea plant (Camellia sinensis)
