Iron Supreme

Description:

Iron Supreme provides 29 mg of elemental iron in the form of ferrous bisglycinate, an amino acid chelated iron designed for enhanced absorption, optimal utilization and gastrointestinal (GI) tolerance.

• Provides Safe, Highly-Absorbed Iron for a Variety of Protocols
• High-Concentration Iron for Energy Support
• Supports Oxygen Transport and Energy Production

Iron is one of the most abundant minerals on earth. It is essential to the majority of life forms, especially human physiology. Iron supports prenatal and cognitive health, as well as energy balance.

Iron is an integral component of the proteins involved in oxygen transport and storage: hemoglobin, myoglobin and ferritin. Iron, as part of the protein hemoglobin, carries oxygen from the lungs to various parts of the body. Hemoglobin accounts for nearly two-thirds of the iron found in the body, and carries essential oxygen to tissues and organs. Approximately one-sixth of the body’s iron is stored as ferritin for use when dietary intake is not sufficient.

Iron must be maintained at balanced levels within the body—too much can cause toxicity and too little may lead to impairment of optimal health outcomes. Iron has to be carefully absorbed by the body. Interference can easily occur, making adequate consumption through diet and supplementation imperative to achieving a healthy balance.

Some individuals, who take other forms of iron supplements, may experience GI side effects, including gas, bloating, constipation or a combination of these symptoms. Supplementing the right form of iron can be key to maintaining healthy levels within the body and compliance to a supplement regimen.

Benefits:

Hemoglobin Concentration

Iron Supreme is formulated with ferrous bisglycinate, an amino acid chelate form with a two-fold higher bioavailability than traditional iron salts (e.g., ferrous sulfate). A meta-analysis examining the effect of 4-20 weeks of iron supplementation concluded that ferrous bisglycinate supplementation improves hemoglobin concentration and causes minimal GI symptoms.

Energy Balance

Iron is a vital component in energy metabolism, serving as an important factor within the electron transport chain. Inadequate energy production is associated with fatigue.

Prenatal Support

Several health organizations, including the World Health Organization and National Institutes of Health, recommend iron supplementation during pregnancy to support maternal and fetal health.

Suggested Use:

1 capsule per day or as recommended by your health care professional.
