As people get older they need more B12, calcium and vitamin D than younger people
A 3p-a day pill can have a huge impact on your health, potentially staving off dementia and enhancing memory. The Times reported that as people get older their bodies become less good at absorbing nutrients from food.
Duane Mellor, dietician and senior teaching fellow at the Aston Medical School in Birmingham, says that “older adults do tend to need relatively more B12, calcium and vitamin D” than younger people, and a study in the journal Nutrients showed that taking a multivitamin helped to support immune function in people aged 55-plus. It could also preserve memory.
Diet and wellbeing guru Dr Michael Mosley has previously recommended tablets which can cost as 2p a day which can reduce the chances of getting dementia - and also give a big boost to your body and immune system.
