A new clinical study has found that taking a daily multivitamin may help slow some signs of biological ageing in older adults. For two years, researchers followed older people and measured how different markers of ageing changed in their bodies. The group who took multivitamins showed a slower rate of these changes compared to adults who did not take them.

The study suggests that good nutrition could help people stay healthier as they get older. It also shows that a daily multivitamin may support important body functions like immune health and brain function.

Experts warn that multivitamins should not replace a healthy lifestyle. Regular exercise, balanced food, and enough sleep are still very important. More research is needed to know which nutrients are most useful and if the benefit is the same for other age groups.
