Question Hi ,
I am a healthy 40 year old, witha very healthy well balanced diet , but I want to start having vitamin and mineral supplements to ensure continued good health. Which products are available in India which are suitable and get absorbed by the body appropiately. regards
vijay
Answer Hi Vijay,
Since you are a healthy person taking a good diet, you may not require anything else, but as a prophylactic against age induced disorders the only thing I would suggest is a combination of antioxidant vitamins.
There is adequate evidence that Vitamin A, C and E with or without selenim and other micronutrients prevent cancer, heart disease and to some extent ageing. I do not like to suggest any particular brand but you may choose a brand as per your discretion.
