The Age/ Weight factor:  
 
Age:  There is no doubt that as we grow older, our ability to absorb nutrients gets less.   Cells become less efficient at absorbing needed nutrients. 
 
Weight:  On top of this, excess body weight (fat) seems to aggravate the  process.  Witness the research that points out the potential effects of consuming food that was "designed" rather than naturally occurring food. (see newsletter No 2.)  Junk oils coating the cell walls making them largely unable to utilise nutrients.
 
If you accept this, then it is easy to understand why, as we get older, it is so important to boost the intake of any nutrients that may be in short supply..  Especially ones that are already known to be deficient in most of our diets.
 
This problem can be overcome with a combination of avoiding the wrong foods and adding extra of the missing bits to our diets 
Genetic Factors:  Many people consider that genetics play a large factor as well.  Quite probably.   But to be sure of this it would be necessary to remove the influence of family.  
 
Family must have a big influence, for it is family that sets eating habits and indeed, builds the body.  Just as in education, family attitude to food, plays a huge role in deciding what sorts of food that we are accustomed to.   While most people can change these habits, often it takes a big fright to even make the subject worthy of our time
