Should I take vitamins while on GLP-1 medications?

Supplementation is often beneficial during GLP-1 therapy due to reduced food intake and potential nutrient gaps. A high-quality multivitamin provides baseline insurance against deficiencies. Key nutrients to monitor include: vitamin D (many overweight individuals are deficient), B12 (absorption may be affected), iron (especially for menstruating women), calcium and vitamin D for bone health, magnesium (often low in modern diets), and omega-3 fatty acids for cardiovascular and cognitive health. If eating significantly less meat, consider B12 and iron supplementation. Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) require dietary fat for absorption, so take with meals containing some fat. Work with your healthcare provider to test levels and personalize supplementation rather than guessing.
