Answer

I stop supplements during longer fasts and switched my supplement window to the evening for IF.

Most of your vitamins should be coming from food and for healthy people skipping a few days won’t cause any deficiencies. There are studies that show the body doesn’t use synthetic vitamins as well as those from plants so I’d recommend looking into exactly what you are buying if you choose to continue to supplement.
