Take it first thing when you get up... I have mine with tea and my thyroid dose. (it helps if you have another drug that requires empty stomach like that). I wait at least an hour or more before I have breakfast food. Most breakfast food is loaded with fiber..cereals, bread etc.
Or you can take it before bedtime, and hopefully your tummy is empty then? <cough cough>
When I was going thru the menopause and had trouble sleeping I took it then, at night. It really helped the insomnia.
The reason for this is that methylB12 is in the conversion step from serotonin to melatonin --melatonin is the "sleep" hormone.
Menopause wasn't too bad for me really, except for the sleep issue.
