THE TURBO-CHARGERS CELEBRITIE­S SWEAR BY

- They all take supplement­s. We reveal what — and why...

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.
