Vitamins for Seniors Over 60 — The Nutrients That Matter Most
After 60, the body absorbs and uses several nutrients differently — and the advice that served you at 40 quietly stops fitting. A few nutrients matter more; a few are easy to overdo.
This guide explains what changes with age, the handful of vitamins and minerals worth paying attention to, why absorption (not just intake) becomes the issue, and how to avoid the common over-supplementing traps. Practical, calm, and built for a real doctor's visit.
