Daily multivitamins linked to slower biological aging in seniors, study finds
TL;DR Summary
A Nature Medicine study of 958 older adults (average age 70) found that taking a daily Centrum Silver multivitamin–mineral for two years slowed biological aging by about four months across five epigenetic clocks; cocoa extract had no effect. Researchers caution that these early biomarker findings have not yet shown impacts on clinical outcomes and do not prove reduced disease risk.
