Wellness Series - MCT supplementation stabilizes balance functions during walking in healthy older adults.

Dr. Berger has selected studies he feels are most important scientifically and would be interesting to the LifeSense Products customers.
 
In healthy elderly adults, authors found that MCTs stabilized balance function during walking and this could related to improved muscle density. 
 
Since MCTs also may improve cognitive function in the elderly, this could be a contributing factor towards improvement. 
 
A hugely important finding since falls in the elderly account for serious accidents, fractures, and death.
