We All Age Get your Supplement Stack in Order

Published on 7 December 2022

As we age, our bodies go through scary changes that can impact our overall health and well-being. One of the most significant changes that occurs is a decline in the ability to absorb and utilize vitamins and minerals. Why is that though?

Old Man Time

Over time our DNA & cells get damaged. This happens in multiple ways. Exposure to harmful toxins (smoking, excessive alcohol being two main factors), too much processed food & not getting enough vitamins & mineral supplementation from our food (a key factor this millennium).Less talked about is genetic factors. What have you inherited? This is overlooked or neglected by general practitioners/ physicians. Getting blood work done twice a year could save your life or catch diseases early. There is also a wide variety of genetic testing available with the cost reducing all the time.

Thank You science. See, everything modern is not all bad. Used correctly it will help us live significantly longer & healthier.
The second part is key. Who want to be old and not be able to function. No thanks.

Vitamin deficiencies in Aging populations

Let’s looks at the key vitamins required back by 50+ years of studies. These will be linked below.Vitamin D deficiency is a common problem among older adults, as the body's ability to absorb this vitamin decreases with age. Vitamin D is essential for maintaining strong bones and teeth, as well as for maintaining a healthy immune system. A deficiency in vitamin D can lead to osteoporosis, a condition characterized by weak and brittle bones that are more prone to fractures. It can also increase the risk of falls, which can be particularly dangerous for older adults.
Solution – get more sunlight. Now this is easier said than done based on where you live if you live. Living in the northern hemisphere during winter? You MUST supplement with Vitamin D. Are you getting sunshine where you live? Good. You need less Vitamin D3 supplements.
Vitamin B12 deficiency is another widespread problem among older adults. This vitamin is essential to produce red blood cells, as well as for maintaining a healthy nervous system. A deficiency in vitamin B12 can lead to an iron deficiency anaemia, as well as to neurological problems such as numbness, tingling, and is also linked to Dementia and Alzheimer’s – the scariest age-related diseases.
Solution – High quality red meat, specifically beef organ meat can be helpful. Extremely bioavailable and easy to consume. Like a meeting a long lost friend – it just feels good. Beef organ supplements, whether it is, beef liver, beef heart or a blend of organs meats see what works for you.
Lifestyle Factors – this would not be a serious article if this were not covered. Body composition - gaining weight, particularly as a woman, can accelerate the aging process as it is associated with an increased risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and certain types of cancer.
Solution - These diseases cause damage to cells and tissues, which can contribute to the aging process. If you are at risk for all three you need to take serious look at your lifestyle.Most doctors won’t tell you this or will be afraid to mention it as they may upset/insult you and potentially lose you as a customer.Personally, we like to hear the truth when it comes to our health

Aging sucks, we can slow the Process

In conclusion, vitamin deficiencies are a widespread problem among older populations.Vitamin deficiencies will lead to a variety of health problems, including osteoporosis, , and neurological problems. However, the cost benefit of taking a supplement versus needing additional healthcare as people age can be significant. Grass fed beef organs, a convenient and bioavailable supplement are a rich source of vitamins and minerals and can help prevent deficiencies and improve overall health and well-being.

This is not medical advice – it’s from looking around you and  seeing aging relatives who didn’t look after themselves. It is an observation from  people who have seen it all go bad before. It is important to consult with doctor before taking any supplements or making any changes to your diet.Just make sure your doctor is healthy. A quick look up and down and few key questions (for your doctor!) will answer that.
