Due to the increased risk of side effects and the lack of sufficient research on the safety of dietary supplements in the elderly, the use of Lipiforma Bergamia by people over 70 years of age is not recommended.
Older adults have an increased risk of side effects with medications and dietary supplements, including cholesterol-lowering supplements such as Lipiforma Bergamia. As you age, the risk of interactions with other medications and side effects increases.
Dietary supplements, including Lipiforma Bergamia, are not as thoroughly regulated and studied for safety in older adults as prescription drugs such as statins. Therefore, their use in seniors is discouraged.
Older adults should focus on lifestyle and diet changes to lower cholesterol rather than supplementation. Your doctor or dietitian can help you choose the right diet and possibly prescribe prescription medication if necessary.
