Now, researchers have found that vitamin C has a positive
impact on bone density of elderly men.
The study
In a new study published in the book Seminars in Preventive and Alternative Medicine, researchers looked
at over 100 studies conducted in the past 10 years. The researchers wanted to
find out the impact of vitamin C on bone density, an important indicator of
overall bone health.
The findings
Researchers found that elderly men who took vitamin C on a
regular basis had stronger bones compared to those who did not. Most of the studies used 500mg of vitamin C as
the benchmark, which is higher than the 90mg suggested by most nutritionists.
How much Vitamin C?
The researchers advised people to take plenty of fruits and
vegetables which are rich in vitamin C. Although you can opt for vitamin
supplements, your body is able to absorb the vitamin more efficiently from the
food you eat. Elderly men should take at least 9 portions of fruits and
vegetables in order to maintain bone health. The regular consumption of fruits
and vegetables will resupply the aged body with the vitamins and minerals it
needs to maintain overall health.
