The recommended daily allowances for vitamins and other supplements are determined for minimallevels of health and the prevention of major deficiencies. The RDA’s are not considered to be adequate for the prevention of the degenerative changes associated with aging. Adequate amounts and the proper balance of nutritional supplements can help control elevations of blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol, strengthen the immune system, improve stamina and performance, and reduce tissue inflammation.
