Iron Bisglycinate 20mg with vitamin C has been expertly formulated to support iron levels without the negative side effects associated with standard iron supplements, which are also poorly absorbed. Compounds in the diet including fibre, polyphenols and phytates can bind to iron and inhibit its absorption. To overcome this, we use the gentle chelated bisglycinate form which has higher bioavailability – up to 90% more than other forms. Iron bisglycinate is absorbed approximately 4x better than ferrous sulphate and sustains iron levels for longer. Targeted release technology delivers iron directly to the site of maximum absorption, the duodenum in the small intestines. We add co-factor vitamin C to enhance absorption by binding iron to transferrin, a protein that delivers iron to cells where it is needed.
This product is not recommended for men, women post-menopause or young women pre-menstruation without prior iron testing.
