I bought some vitamins called L-Lysine (500mg) and the directions say to take it twice a day on an empty stomach. I was online and some L-Lysine require to take it with food, which procedure works best??

why am I constantly bloated? I am so full of gas?

I wasnt always like this.
the only new things in my life that might have caused this is:
-16 hour flight (that was a week ago and i suffer no jet lag now)
- Stress Vitamin B Complex pills that consist of 400mg Folic Acid, 100mg Niacin, 12 mcg Vitamin B6, 12 mcg Vitamin B12, Thiamin 10mg, Riboflavin 10mg, and other trivial amount of nutrients..
- Collagen pills

I rarely overeat yet I always feel full!! my stomach is enlarged due to gas and thats on empty stomach why?

Can a vitamin make you throw up?

I recently bought a bottle of the Women's One-a-Day vitamins. Sunday morning I woke up and took one, but threw up about 45 minutes later. Is it possible that because I took it on an empty stomach, it could have made me throw up?

How should I take l-carnitine?

The woman told me at the vitamin store to take it on an empty stomach when I wake up but I don't work out until late evening. Is it ok to take two doses like the one in the morning and another like 30 minutes before I work out or should I just remove the first dose all together?

How important is it to take your vitamins with food?

I've always heard that you should take your vitamins with food to help them be absorbed by your body-is this true? Would there still be benifts from my morning vitamins if I take them on an empty stomach then eat perhaps an hour later?
