Adequate intake of B vitamins is very important, as we age absorption becomes less and less. The B vitamins help to maintain the health of the nerves, skin, eyes, hair, liver, and mouth, as well as healthy muscle tone in the gastrointestinal tract and proper brain function. B-complex vitamins are coenzymes involved in energy production.
An antioxidant vitamin vital to proper adrenal activity, pantothenic acid is a precursor to cortisone production and an aid to natural steroid synthesis. It is important in preventing arthritis and high cholesterol. It fights infection by building antibodies, and defends against stress, fatigue and nerve disorders. Needed to help convert proteins, carbohydrates, fats into energy and is also essential for optimum immune system functioning.
Niacin is needed for proper circulation and healthy skin. It has a wide spectrum of functions, including energy production, cholesterol, metabolism, sex hormone synthesis and good digestion. Niacin is essential for fat metabolism.

GOOD NEWS for people concerned about Vitamin B12 supplementation but fearful of injections and needles: A recent study finds that taking daily vitamin B12 supplements orally is just as effective at correcting nutrient deficiencies as costly B12 injections.
Researchers in the Netherlands studied a group of elderly patients diagnosed with specific vitamin B12 deficiency. Patients who took daily supplements of the B vitamin fared equally well compared with those who received monthly B12 shots. To ensure proper absorption, the study's authors recommend taking about 200 times the recommended daily allowance of vitamin B12, or between 650 and 1,000 micrograms per day...July 10, 2005

Taking vitamin E supplements, as well as increased intake of B complex vitamins including B1 (thiamine) and B2 (riboflavin) could slow cataract progression, suggest U. S. researchers,
Age related cataract, the world's leading cause of blindness, affects more than 20 million Americans over the age of 40. Surgical procedures are currently the only known correction, but researchers at the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University are now investigating how specific vitamin intake and dietary improvements can help prevent cataracts.
In a study published in the April issue of the Archives of Ophthalmology (123, pp 517-526), the scientists found that women who reported supplementing their diets with vitamin E for 10 years or more had significantly less progression of cataract development after five years of follow-up.
A similar significant decrease in cataract progression was seen in women who reported higher intakes of two of the B complex vitamins, (riboflavin and thiamin) when compared to women with lower intakes. "Our results suggest that vitamin supplementation, particularly long-term use of vitamin E, may slow down cataract development," said lead scientist Paul Jacques. The results build upon some of Jaques' earlier work. In 2001, while examining the same group of Nurses' Health Study members, Jacques and his colleagues found support for a similar role of vitamin C in the prevention of cataracts.
Writing in the May issue of the American Journal of Epidemiology, Jacques and colleagues observed that higher overall dietary fat intake increased the risk of cataract development or progression, however Omega-3 Fatty Acids, in particular the types found in EPA-DHA rich fish oils appears to contribute to the prevention of catarats also......August 17, 2005
B Comlex & Vitamin E May Reduce Cataracts

Research: This important study was based on nutritional and dietary information collected from 579 people, ages 60 and older that showed no sign of Alzheimer's disease. The subjects in the study were instructed to maintain specific records of food consumed during a typical week and indicated whether or not they were taking supplements that contined Folic Acid (Folate). Researches recorded this data over a period of 10 years.
Results: During the 10-year period, 57 people (nearly 10% of the total group) developed Alzheimer's disease. Researchers determined those people who were regularly getting at least 400 micrograms of Folic Acid per day had 55% lower risk of developing Alzheimer's disease than thos who were consuming less than that amount. The reasearches also concluded that most of the subjects were able to achieve a minimum of 400 micrograms (or more) by taking nutritional supplements containing Folic Acid,. . . September 27, 2005
