People over 40 years of age need to take vitamin D3.
It slows down aging and prevents cancer, said family nutritionist and parapharmacist Yulia Popova.
The expert listed the vitamins necessary after 40 years of age in a conversation with the publication NEWS.ru.
What vitamins should you take after 40 years
Firstly, vitamin D3. Normalizes blood pressure, strengthens the immune system, slows down aging, and prevents cancer.
This vitamin is also important for preventing osteoporosis. As Popova explained, calcium is not absorbed normally without vitamin D3.
Calcium, in turn, strengthens bones, releases hormones and enzymes, and regulates the transmission of nerve impulses.
Secondly, vitamin C. It has antioxidant properties and prevents premature aging.
It also helps improve carbohydrate metabolism and helps keep glucose levels and weight under control.
Thirdly, vitamin E. It is also an antioxidant that slows down oxidative processes, protects cells and strengthens the immune system.
Makes blood vessels more elastic, prevents the formation of cholesterol plaques.
It affects the synthesis of hormones, especially sex hormones, which determine the rate of aging, the nutritionist noted.
She also advised people over 40 to take collagen, omega-3 and magnesium.
