Nutrient deficiencies are particularly common in older people, with many lacking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dr-rath-foundation.org\/2018\/07\/study-finds-significant-proportion-of-older-adults-deficient-in-vitamin-b12-and-folate\/\">vitamin B12 and folate<\/a>.

Dr. Rath\u2019s groundbreaking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dr-rath-foundation.org\/cellular-medicine\/\">Cellular Medicine<\/a> research shows that the major diseases and disabilities of ageing CAN be prevented and controlled. Our bodies are self-repairing systems that are designed to keep us fully functional for as long as we take care of them. If we supply ourselves with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dr-rath-foundation.org\/2017\/10\/micronutrient-synergy-the-most-effective-approach-to-health\/\">balanced range of micronutrients<\/a> on a daily basis, take regular exercise and cut down on toxin exposures, our bodies can and will make the necessary repairs to keep us healthy.<\/p>\n<p>To see Dr. Rath\u2019s scientific recommendations for daily intake of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other key nutrients, check out the special <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dr-rath-foundation.org\/2022\/05\/dr-raths-basic-cellular-health-recommendations\/\">Cellular Health feature page<\/a> on our website.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Consuming more oily fish or fish oil supplements may help prevent frailty in older adults in Western populations, according to new research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":74334,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[120],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.6 -
