Reduce your risk of falling by up to 65% with an inexpensive vitamin


On a day-to-day basis, few things scare those over 60 more than falling. Yes, cancer, heart attacks, and Alzheimer's are bigger concerns. But falling can happen to anyone at any time. And falls can cause broken bones, permanent crippling, blood clots (which can lead to stroke), disfigurement, and even death. So preventing falls is vital to remain healthy throughout your life. Now a new study says one of my favorite nutrients can help.
