These people start presuming that this is the age when their body requires some additional nutrients because of which they start consuming the synthetic nutrients (capsules), which as per them is the best possible alternative to the natural supplements.
But they are unaware of the fact that these supplements are produced synthetically from chemicals and consists only a fraction of the natural structure leading to various side effects. Although nutritional supplements are supposed to improve our health but too many can actually give rise to health problems. For eg.
