Basic supplementation for people aged 60+Updated 4 months ago
Supplementation in later life has its specifics due to increased nutrient requirements and reduced absorption capacity.
As basic supplements to support health in this stage of life, we recommend:
Due to decreased stomach acid production, calcium absorption from food may be reduced
Take 1–2 capsules daily
We also recommend strength training to stimulate bone metabolism and help prevent bone mass loss
Magnesium, Zinc Chelate + Vitamin B6
Magnesium is essential for proper calcium metabolism and helps prevent muscle cramps
Take 2–4 capsules daily
Omega-3 fatty acids are crucial for reducing chronic low-grade inflammation associated with aging
With age, the risk of atherosclerosis and high blood pressure increases
Choose from our full range of omega-3 products: Liquid Omega 3, Omega 3 Algae, or Krill Oil +
Multivitamin Daily F20 Complex
Helps replenish essential nutrient deficiencies
With advancing age, nutrient absorption from food may decline
Take 2 powder capsules + 1 liquid capsule daily with a meal
Vitamin D together with vitamin K2 is essential for proper calcium deposition in bones and cardiovascular health
In case of low vitamin D blood levels, we recommend increasing intake beyond the Daily F20 Complex multivitamin (which contains 1000 IU)
Optimal blood levels of vitamin D should be between 100–150 nmol/L
We recommend Vitamin D3+K2 in drops or Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 in capsules
With age, oxidative stress tends to increase
The accumulation of oxidative damage over time is one of the key drivers of aging
Take 1–2 capsules daily, individually as needed
Due to decreased stomach acid production, iron absorption from food may be impaired
We recommend dosing based on blood test results
Take 1–2 capsules daily on an empty stomach (ideally after a glass of water with a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to support digestion)
