Iron Complex - the power of iron combined with vitamins C and B12.

Iron is a mineral we can hardly imagine life without. It is a key building block of haemoglobin, the substance in red blood cells that ensures that every cell in the body receives the oxygen it needs to function. Without adequate iron, our bodies quickly find themselves in an energy deficit - we feel exhausted, out of sorts, tired at the slightest exertion.

The good news is that this mineral can already be taken up to a certain extent through the diet, and is divided into heme (from animal sources) and non-heme (from plant sources) iron, depending on its origin. 

Sources of haem iron include red meat, liver, chicken, fish, and egg yolks, while good sources of non-haem iron are lentils, beans, spinach, oats, pumpkin seeds, and dried fruit.

Non-heme iron has a slightly lower absorption than heme iron, so a combination of intake with vitamin C is recommended to improve absorption.

Who needs more iron?

Some groups of people have higher iron requirements, either due to natural losses or increased physiological needs:

• women of childbearing age - due to monthly bleeding,
• pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers - to support the development of the child,
• children and adolescents - during periods of growth,
• vegans and vegetarians - because they do not consume haem iron, which has better absorption,
• active individuals and athletes - due to greater losses through sweating and recovery,
• people with low haemoglobin or after surgery.

A well-thought-out formula with vitamin C to increase absorption.

The iron action of the complex is also perfectly complemented by vitamin C from a natural source - rosehip extract, which increases the absorption of this important mineral. Vitamin B12 is also added to vitamin C, and together they contribute to the normal function of the immune system and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Iron, vitamins C and B12 also contribute to:

• normal formation of red blood cells (iron, B12) and haemoglobin (iron), 
• normal oxygen transport in the body (iron),
• normal cognitive function (iron) and normal psychological function (vitamins B12, C),
• normal functioning of the nervous system (vitamin B12, C),
• normal energy-yielding metabolism (vitamin B12, C), the
• the protection of cells from oxidative stress (vitamin C),
• normal collagen formation for the normal function of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin, and teeth (vitamin C).

With just 1 capsule a day, support your blood, immunity, eliminate fatigue, and more.

In addition to iron and the 2 vitamins, the complex also contains fennel seed (Foeniculum vulgare) - an aromatic plant known for its characteristic aniseed smell. It has been used for centuries in traditional European and Mediterranean diets, as well as in folk herbalism, especially for digestive comfort and relaxation.
