How to Take It
Best taken in the morning
Bisglycinate is the gentle form — most people tolerate it on an empty stomach, which is exactly where it absorbs best. Vitamin C may help absorption.
On the label
1 capsule daily with a meal, a few hours before or after taking other medications or natural health products, or as directed by a physician
Labels usually say “with food” because it's gentler on the stomach, not because it absorbs better. Fasted absorbs more — start there, and switch to a light meal if it bothers you.
General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
