Duykan continued: “Behind the formula of Centrum, there is research for different needs, from scientists to doctors, pharmacists and dietitians. The science behind Centrum was founded in the 1950s by young scientist Dr. It began with Leon Ellenbogen’s study in New York on the use of nutritional support in cancer patients. Later, with his increasing interest in vitamins, he focused on the effects of vitamins on human metabolism, and as a result of his research, the idea of Centrum multivitamin was born. In the early 1970s he decided to develop a complete multivitamin and multimineral supplement to support healthy living. As a result of all these researches, the first Centrum multivitamin was introduced to consumers in 1978. Multivitamin Centrum, preferred by millions of people around the world, provides multi-support to its users with each tablet. The vitamins and minerals in Centrum support skin, muscle and bone health as well as having a positive effect on the energy, nervous and immune system. In addition, with its holistic nutrition perspective, it provides multi-support to those who give importance to their physical and mental health in the adventure of a good life. Used in research by leading scientists around the world, Centrum offers reliable multivitamin support in nutrition science, from doctors in Antarctica to NASA astronauts in space. In 2011, NASA measured the stability of multivitamins in space and tested whether they could be used by astronauts. As a result of long and detailed research, it was revealed that Centrum is the only multivitamin brand that maintains its stability even in space and can be used by astronauts. In addition, more than 14,000 doctors used Centrum over 11 years, according to Physician’s Health Study II, the largest multivitamin study ever done.”
“The correct and appropriate use of multivitamins is important for a healthy life.”
Expressing that choosing the right vitamin is very important for a quality life, Prof. Dr. Osman Müftüoğlu stated that unconscious use of vitamins can cause problems in the body and said, “The correct and appropriate use of vitamins and multivitamins is indispensable for a healthy life.” he said.
Prof. Dr. Osman Müftüoğlu made the following statements regarding the use of multivitamins:
“Multivitamins, known as multi-food supplements, are capsules or tablets consisting of specially Supplement combinations. My personal opinion on multivitamins is as follows; If your doctor deems it necessary, he may want to measure which vitamin you need with some blood tests. Do not use high doses of monovitamins at your own discretion. It should not be forgotten that the use of unconscious and high doses of monovitamin, mineral and antioxidant supplements can cause harm instead of benefit. If you are thinking of becoming a stronger, more energetic, more resistant person in general, you can still benefit from a reliable multivitamin supplement by consulting your doctor or pharmacist. Especially school-age children and teenagers and people aged 50 and over can also benefit from multivitamin supplements.
