Centrum Adult 50+

Centrum Adult 50+ is a multivitamin formulated specifically for adults aged 50 and older, designed to support the unique health needs of people in this age group. As we age, our nutritional needs change, and this formula addresses common concerns such as bone health, immunity, energy levels, and cognitive function.

Key Benefits of Centrum Adult 50+:

1. Supports Immune Health: Includes antioxidants like vitamins C and E, along with zinc, to help strengthen the immune system.
2. Promotes Bone Health: Fortified with calcium, vitamin D, and magnesium to support strong bones and reduce the risk of osteoporosis, a concern for many aging adults.
3. Supports Energy and Vitality: Contains B-vitamins (such as B1, B2, B6, B12) to help convert food into energy and maintain healthy metabolism.
4. Eye Health: Contains lutein and vitamin A to help protect and maintain healthy vision, which becomes more important with age.
5. Cognitive Function: Formulated with vitamins like B12 and folic acid, which are essential for brain health and memory.
6. Heart Health: Includes vitamins like B6, B12, folic acid, and antioxidants to support cardiovascular health.

Common Ingredients:

• Vitamin A: Supports eye health and immune function.
• Vitamin C: An antioxidant that supports immune function and skin health.
• Vitamin D: Helps with calcium absorption and bone health.
• Vitamin E: An antioxidant that supports the health of skin and cells.
• B-vitamins (B1, B2, B6, B12): Help convert food into energy, support metabolism, and maintain nerve function.
• Folic Acid: Important for maintaining cognitive function and heart health.
• Calcium: Essential for maintaining bone strength, which becomes more important as we age.
• Magnesium: Supports bone health, muscle function, and heart health.
• Zinc: Essential for immune function and wound healing.
• Lutein: A carotenoid that supports eye health and may help reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration.
• Selenium: An antioxidant that supports immune health and protects cells from damage.

Usage:

Typically, the recommended dose is one tablet per day, taken with food or as directed by a healthcare provider. Some people prefer to take it with a meal to avoid any potential stomach upset.

Considerations:

• Calcium and Vitamin D: The aging body’s ability to absorb calcium and vitamin D decreases, so Centrum 50+ includes these nutrients in amounts tailored to support bone health as you age.
• Iron: Unlike other Centrum formulations, Centrum 50+ contains little or no iron, as iron needs generally decrease after age 50 unless specifically prescribed by a healthcare provider (e.g., in cases of anemia).
• Consult a doctor before starting any new supplement, especially if you have existing health conditions, are taking other medications, or are pregnant.
• If you experience any side effects, such as stomach upset, headaches, or allergic reactions, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider.

Who Can Benefit:

• Adults aged 50 and older who want to support their overall health and fill in potential nutritional gaps.
• People looking for extra support for bone health, cognitive function, and energy levels.
• Seniors who need a multivitamin with age-appropriate nutrients, with fewer or no iron to prevent iron overload.
