VITAMINS COST YOUR LIFE

Latest reports and studies have confirmed that vitamins may shorten the lifespan. The chance of reduced lifespan is more for those who are taking in vitamins than those who are not consuming them. Nearly 1800 people aged between 62 and 74 were considered in conducting the survey in the town of Finland.

In the survey 59 of 221 people consuming vitamins died whereas only 281 out of 1153 died who are not consuming vitamins. The researchers found that other factors such as smoking, age and gender would also distort the lifespan. It was deciphered that the chance of risking lifespan is up to 50 to 60 per cent more for those who are consuming vitamins. 

The recent findings may not be true because, several other factors such as immunity, gender and others also should be taken into account while conducting the survey. But as far as the survey is concerned, in all probability, consumption of vitamins may reduce the lifespan of an individual.
