Vanoh D, Shahar S, Yahya HM, et al. - In this secondary investigation, researchers sought to evaluate the longitudinal connection between dietary supplementation (either vitamin, mineral or herbal) use at baseline in improving various parameters namely cognitive function, physical fitness, biochemical parameters, and anthropometry at 18 and 36 months, among community-dwelling older adults in Malaysia. Among 1,285 individuals with complete data, longitudinal associations were carried out using linear mixed model analysis. Multivitamins, B-complex, and calcium were the most common vitamin and mineral supplements ingested. Meanwhile, Eurycoma longifolia, Morinda citrifolia and Orthosiphon aristatus were the herbal supplements consumed by the participants. The findings indicated that the intake of dietary supplements is not associated with cognitive function, physical fitness, nutritional status, depressive symptoms or biochemical indices, as improved parameters were seen in both supplement users and nonusers.
