The Role of Nutrition in Longevity & Disease Prevention
Optimal nutrition is a cornerstone of longevity, supporting cellular repair, immune function, and metabolic health. While a balanced diet is the best source of essential nutrients, modern lifestyles often lead to deficiencies that accelerate aging and increase disease risk. Scientific research confirms that supplementing with key vitamins and minerals can prevent or reverse biochemical aging, reduce inflammation, and lower the risk of heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. At Relysian Zurich, our precision nutrition programs use data-driven diagnostics to optimize nutrient intake and enhance performance.
94% of People Are Deficient in This Key Longevity Nutrient
Deficiencies in Vitamin D and Magnesium are among the most common, yet they are critical for bone health, metabolic regulation, and inflammation control. Over 94% of people do not get enough Vitamin D, while more than half are deficient in Magnesium, both of which are essential for cell longevity, insulin sensitivity, and cardiovascular health. Our executive blood panels and AI-driven health assessments at Relysian Zurich identify individual deficiencies, allowing us to design targeted supplementation and nutrition strategies for optimal well-being.
The 8 Best Vitamins & Minerals for Longevity
1. Magnesium – Metabolic Regulator & DNA Repair
Magnesium activates enzymes responsible for DNA repair and energy production, improves insulin sensitivity, regulates blood pressure, and reduces chronic inflammation, a key factor in metabolic diseases like
diabetes.
2. Vitamin D – Essential for Bone & Immune Health
Vitamin D is critical for calcium absorption, bone strength, and immune defense. It also regulates cell growth, helping prevent cancer and metabolic disorders. Low levels are linked to heart disease, obesity, and diabetes.
3. B-Complex Vitamins – Cellular Energy & Brain Health
The eight B vitamins support metabolic function, red blood cell production, and nervous system health. Some B vitamins help reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes, dementia, and depression.
4. Vitamin E – Antioxidant Protection & Skin Health
A powerful antioxidant, Vitamin E supports immune function, cellular rejuvenation, and skin and eye health, reducing oxidative stress and preventing cellular aging.
5. Vitamin C – Tissue Repair & Heart Health
Beyond boosting immunity, Vitamin C plays a key role in collagen production, tissue repair, and cardiovascular health. It enhances iron absorption, lowers blood pressure, and reduces the risk of heart disease.
6. Vitamin A – Anti-Aging & Vision Support
Also known as retinol, Vitamin A slows visible signs of aging, promotes skin health, strengthens the immune system, and supports heart and lung function.
7. Selenium – Cellular Defense & Metabolism
This trace mineral is crucial for thyroid function and antioxidant defense, protecting cells from oxidative stress and metabolic dysfunction.
8. Calcium – Bone Strength & Cardiovascular Function
While 99% of calcium is stored in bones and teeth, it is also vital for nerve transmission, muscle function, and heart health. Calcium deficiencies can lead to hypertension and cardiovascular complications.
