Why is it so essential to supplement with vitamins after 60?
From this stage on, many adults spot that, despite eating well, their energy levels drop , their skin ages more quickly, wounds take longer to heal, or their bones become more fragile. This isn’t always because of the passage of time, but rather to silent deficiencies in key vitamins.
An annual checkup, bl00d tests, and a conversation with a nutritionist can help you know what your body needs. Remember not to self-medicate, but you should understand your body’s symptoms.
Tips for better vitamin absorption
Mix vitamin-rich foods with healthy fats (such as avocado or olive oil) to enhance absorption.
Avoid drinking coffee or tea right after meals, as they can block the absorption of certain nutrients.
Hydrate well: water helps deliver vitamins throughout the body.
Respect the timing of supplements, especially if they are to be taken on an empty stomach or with food.
