How to Freeze Vitamins

For those who buy products in bulk or are eligible for huge discounts, it makes more sense to buy a large supply of vitamins at once. Storing the vitamins in the freezer can help preserve the nutrients' integrity and increase shelf life as long as they are not taken from the freezer every day. They key is to prevent both humidity and light from getting in because they both could cause compromise the product's quality over time.

Instructions

• 1

  Separate from the stash of vitamins a three-month supply that you can keep out of the freezer for daily use. By doing this, you will avoid having to take the vitamins out of the freezer each day, which helps prevents moisture from getting inside the container.

• 2

  Take note of how the vitamins are packaged because this is done to maintain their effectiveness. If they are in an opaque bottle, keep the vitamins away from light by putting them in a dark corner of the freezer or beneath other items.

• 3

  Allow the container to return to room temperature once it is removed from the freezer. You can then open it, take out another three-month supply, seal it by closing the lid tight and then return it to the freezer. Each smaller, three-month supply should be stored in an airtight, opaque container away from humid places such as the kitchen or the bathroom.
