Typical dosages of key vitamins and minerals found in supplements for men over 60 are : Vit C 60-100 mg, D 0-25 μg (400-1000 IU), B12 1.5-24 μg, B9 200-400 μg, Calcium 200-300 mg, Magnesium 100-300 mg, Zinc 10-15 mg. Are these dosages likely to be close to optimal for this group or are higher levels needed? Some research suggests for example that Vitamin D3 doses should range from 5,000 IU to 50,000 IU in extremis.”ClosedNicola asked 2 months ago • Healing Modalities84 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “Creator has suggested there may be grounds for taking a wide spectrum multivitamin and mineral in addition to antivirals. One business source in the UK makes claims regarding vitamin D, B9, and B12. They say 57% of UK adults have below-optimal levels of vitamin D; 20% of those aged 60 and above have a vitamin B12 deficiency; 23% of women aged 19-64 have iron intakes below recommended levels. They also claim calcium and magnesium may be generally deficient. To what extent are these statistics accurate and would it be wise to take a wide-spectrum supplement?” What can we tell him?ClosedNicola asked 2 months ago • Healing Modalities72 views0 answers0 votesHe asks about what would be a good broad-spectrum vitamin and mineral supplement: “Would Food-Grown® Daily Multi Nutrient, Centrum Advance, Multi Guard, or similar, be safe and beneficial for men and women over 50?” What can we tell him?ClosedNicola asked 2 months ago • Healing Modalities82 views0 answers0 votes
