Iron is an essential nutrient in human health. It plays an important role in tissue oxygenation, energy production, connective tissue integrity and brain function. While iron can be found in some vegetarian foods, its bioavailability is poor from plant sources. Iron from meat is much more bioavailable, but many people consume low amounts due to various health concerns.
The iron chelate used in this formula is a superior form of iron due to its optimal absorption and gentleness on the stomach. It is a certified “true chelate” mineral utilizing the advanced technology by Albion labs.
Consumers often complain of poor tolerance of their iron supplements resulting in gastric distress and/or constipation. This formula is extremely well tolerated by the gastrointestinal system. It may be safely recommended for pregnant and lactating women, teenagers and adults.
Iron-Absorb formula benefits and unique features:
• A true iron chelate from Albion Minerals
• More absorbable and bioavailable. It does not need adequate stomach acid for its absorption
