However, individuals over 60 often consume less than 50% of the recommended zinc intake, which is crucial for proper body function. Data from the Third Health and Nutrition Survey in the United States revealed that only 42.5% of adults over 71 years old met adequate zinc intake levels, with many suffering from zinc deficiency.

Once a hemoglobin molecule is glycated, it remains that way. A buildup of glycated hemoglobin within the red cell, therefore, reflects the average level of glucose to which the cell has been exposed during its life-cycle. Measuring glycated hemoglobin assesses the effectiveness of therapy by monitoring long-term serum glucose regulation.
The law required that all drugs introduced between 1938 and 1962 had to be effective. A collaborative study by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the National Academy of Sciences showed that nearly 40 percent of these products were not effective. A similarly comprehensive study of over-the-counter products began ten years later. [70]
