GOLDEN WELLNESS
Friends, as we get older, one of the nutrients most seniors lack is vitamin D. Golden wellness. Our skin makes less of it from sunlight as we age. So, even spending time outside may not be enough. Low vitamin D can lead to weak bones and higher risk of fractures. It also affects your immune system, making you more prone to colds and flu. You can get some from foods like salmon, mackerel, or egg yolks, but supplements are often recommended. A typical daily dose is 1,000 to 2,000 IU, but check with your doctor for what’s right for you.
