Give Vitamin C a shot!

 Did you know? . . . Our ability to absorb nutrients starts to decline starting around age 40.
That's why we are so excited to offer Vitamin C Injections (Direct Vitamin Injection Therapy, 
DVIT).
This year especially, it's important for us to maintain healthy vitamin C, D3 and B12 levels.

Vitamin C is infamous in helping to Boost the Immune System. 
 

How Dietary Needs Change with Aging

from Presenter: Katherine Tucker, referenced at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK51837/

“Dietary needs change with aging in several ways:

• People become less active, their metabolism slows, their energy requirement decreases, all of which mean that they need to eat less.
• Recent research demonstrates that because older adults’ abilities to absorb and utilize many nutrients become less efficient, their nutrient requirements (particularly as a function of body mass) actually increase. Tucker mentioned that the last set of nutrition recommendations issued by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) include separate recommendations for people age 70 and above for this reason (IOM, 2006).
• Tucker noted that as some of the previous speakers had discussed, chronic conditions and medications can affect nutrition requirements. For example, in addition to drug-nutrient interactions affecting drug metabolism, some drug-nutrient interactions are also nutrient wasting. This is especially true of the B vitamins.”
