B-Vitamins for Macular Degeneration
In
a seven-year cardiovascular disease trial involving
more than 5,200 women over the age of 40, folic
acid, vitamins B-6 and B-12 were given daily to half
the subjects. The other half were given a
placebo. The group who received the vitamins
ended up with a 41% decrease in the incidence of
macular degeneration.

All the women in the trial reported that they did
not have macular degeneration at the study's start.
Even though the study involved only women, the
researchers say, the findings probably apply to all
elderly people, regardless of gender.
The amount of B-vitamins to take has yet to be
determined. These study results suggest the
use of B-6 and B-12 as a preventative measure will
be researched in a more thorough and rigorous
format. Related Links:
