LOADING ERROR LOADINGMultivitamins might help to slow biological ageing, new research has found. On average, older people who took a multivitamin supplement daily had a biological age four months younger than those who didn’t. The scientists calculated the biological age of the people in the research by looking for five biological ageing “clocks” in their blood. AdvertisementAfter comparing the blood samples, the researchers noted that people who took daily multivitamins showed signs of slower ageing in two of these “clocks”, which were associated with mortality risk. The paper said that though “statistically significant but small effects of daily MVM [multivitamin] supplementation on slowing biological ageing are encouraging”, additional studies are needed to explore this further.
