Multivitamin supplements do NOT work. Stop spending money on them. 50% percent of all American adults (including 70% of those aged 65 and older) spend $12 billion every year on vitamin supplements. But multivitamin supplements do not reduce the risk of: - Heart disease - Dementia - Cancer - Death It's not me saying it, it's the nutrition experts from John Hopkins University • An analysis of research involving 450,000 people found that multivitamins did not reduce the risk for heart disease or cancer. • A study that tracked the mental functioning and multivitamin use of 5,947 men (for 12 years!) found that multivitamins did not reduce the risk for memory loss or slowed-down thinking. • A study of 1,708 heart attack survivors who took a high-dose multivitamin or placebo (for up to 55 months) found the rates of later heart attacks, heart surgeries, and deaths were similar in the two groups. The conclusion, as Dr. Larry Appel (director of the Johns Hopkins Welch Center for Prevention, Epidemiology, and Clinical Research) puts it, is: → "Pills are not a shortcut to better health and the prevention of chronic diseases.” “If you follow a healthy diet, you can get all of the vitamins and minerals you need from food.” This is what we advocate for with kencko Healthy diets but made easier 😉 🥑🍏🍓🍌🍍🍌🥝🥭🍅🫐
Tomás, how does kencko make healthy diets easier?
Sleep well, eat right, move often. The right supplements can assist with health but certainly can't make up for bad habits.

1wIt's eye-opening to see how much we spend on multivitamins that don't really help with heart disease or cancer.
