Scientists of the Center. Helmholtz in Munich (Germany) investigated blood samples 1079 of older Germans, aged 65 to 93 years. Most of the subjects showed a deficit of a vitamin.
Especially often there is a lack of vitamins D and B12.
In the study, researchers paid particular attention to the following micronutrients: vitamin D, folic acid, vitamin B12 and iron.
52% of participants in the concentration of vitamin D was below 50 nmol/l, which tells about the deficit. The second position scarcity took vitamin B12, which is lacking 27% of subjects. The proportion of people with low contents of iron and folic acid were, respectively, 11% and 9%.
Experts disagree regarding the sources of compensation for the deficiency of vitamins. Some people recommend to take supplements, others advocate for good nutrition.
