The two don't mix...

...Vitamins and coffee.

"It's bad to down vitamins with coffee. Because coffee is a stimulant, it revs up the gastrointestinal tract and makes things move more quickly through your body. You won't absorb all the nutrients from a capsule that is cruising through your system. You can still have that cup of coffee when you wake up in the morning. Just make sure you wait 10 to 15 minutes to pop your vitamins with a glass of water."
