Can I take Black cohosh and Vitamin d together?

Why this happens

Black cohosh and vitamin D are processed by the body through different pathways. Black cohosh is primarily broken down by liver enzymes, while vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that undergoes a different metabolic process involving the liver and kidneys to become active. They do not interfere with each other's absorption or effectiveness.

What you should do

You can continue taking both supplements as directed. However, always inform your doctor or pharmacist about all supplements you are taking, especially if you have a history of liver problems, as black cohosh has been rarely linked to liver issues.
