Centrum Silver Multivitamin with Lutein Specially formulated for Adults 50+, 30 Tablets

Centrum Silver is specifically formulated for the nutritional requirements that shift significantly after the age of 50. As adults age, certain key requirements increase (Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Calcium) while others decrease or remain stable. Centrum Silver adjusts the nutrient levels to reflect this - with higher Vitamin D for bone and immune health, higher B12 for the neurological and haematological function that declining stomach acid absorption in older adults compromises, and Lutein for the eye health support that becomes increasingly important as macular degeneration risk rises after 50.

Benefits

• Lutein is a carotenoid that accumulates in the macula of the retina and provides photoprotective antioxidant defence against the oxidative damage that causes age-related macular degeneration - supplementing lutein from age 50 when macular protection becomes a clinically relevant priority
• Higher Vitamin D3 dose compensates for the reduced UV-to-D3 skin conversion efficiency that occurs with ageing skin, supporting the bone mineral density maintenance and immune modulation that adequate Vitamin D provides
• Vitamin B12 at higher supplemental doses is needed because gastric atrophy - the progressive reduction in stomach acid and intrinsic factor production that commonly develops after age 50 - impairs the absorption of food-bound B12, leaving oral supplements as the most reliable route for maintaining B12 status
• Vitamin B6 supports the neurological function and homocysteine metabolism that become increasingly important for cardiovascular health maintenance in the post-50 population
• The comprehensive antioxidant blend including Vitamins C and E, Selenium, and Zinc addresses the elevated oxidative stress that characterizes ageing tissues and contributes to the cell damage underlying many age-related conditions
