I used to be on a chemo drug and had to take folic acid every day to stop it from doing bad things to me.
I had awful ulcers in my mouth from the chemo drug and had been taking the folic acid in the morning. Through forgetfulness I ended up shifting the folic acid to the afternoon and the ulcers went away and never came back.

- hypercube33 1y agoMy guess on some of this has to do with a few things. Hormone levels vary throughout the day along with immune system activity; My allergies are always worse in the morning than the day. I'm sure time is a huge component in a lot of medical things but I haven't personally seen any studies on this. Most people also fast at night (sleeping) and are less physically active etc etc.
