A study published recently in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition documents longer telomere length in women taking multivitamins. Telomere length is a fundamental factor in the ability of cells to renew tissue, a marker of biological aging. Although I don’t recommend multivitamins to people taking a functional approach because your unique personalized protocol fulfills those needs much more effectively, this is more evidence that reducing oxidative stress and chronic inflammation with key micronutrients slows age-related degeneration.
