THE TURBO-CHARGERS CELEBRITIES SWEAR BY
JOAN COLLINS, 83, ACTRESS AND AUTHOR I TAKE vitamin E for my skin, vitamin D to keep my bones strong and vitamin C for my immune system. JO WOOD, 61, MODEL I TAKE supplements every day without fail, including zinc to boost my immunity, iron, B3, vitamins A and C, and omega oils prescribed by my naturopath. It’s important you get good-quality supplements, otherwise you don’t know how much of the active ingredients you’re getting. I’ve been taking them for so long
now I wouldn’t have any idea what I’d feel like without them.
As you get older, your body invariably shows more wear and tear, and needs a boost, especially given that our food has fewer vitamins and minerals in it than it used to. TIM HENMAN, 41, EX-TENNIS PLAYER I’LL HAVE the odd vitamin C tablet to strengthen my immune system in winter. CAPRICE, 44, MODEL AND BUSINESSWOMAN MY BOYS and I take vitamin C and also vitamin D, which they say diminishes your chances of getting any cancer by 50 per cent. JIMMY OSMOND, 53, SINGER I CREDIT my renewed vitality to Dr Joe Wallach’s 90 For Life programme and supplements. Joe
educated me about the role of vitamins and minerals in our body, and how our soil has become so depleted of these essentials, you need a boost. TONY BLACKBURN, 73, RADIO PRESENTER I’VE BEEN told I’m deficient in vitamin D, so I take that and also vitamins C and E to ward off colds. EDDIE EDWARDS, 52, EX-SKI JUMPER
I TAKE vitamin D in the winter, and it seems to help me avoid catching a cold. But in the summer I get outside as much as I can because being in the sunshine helps produce more vitamin D than popping a few pills.
