Description OUR IRON SUPPLEMENT Our Iron mineral supplement contains pure high-strength iron bisglycinate, a chelated form of iron, to create a high-quality mineral supplement. Each capsule provides 50mg of elemental iron within a vegetable shell. WHAT IS IRON? Iron is an essential mineral required for life. Iron is necessary for the production of haemoglobin, myoglobin, and certain enzymes. WHAT IS CHELATED IRON? We use iron bisglycinate in our mineral supplement. Iron bisglycinate is a chelated mineral. Chelated minerals are combined with amino acids to form a complex that is more easily digested and assimilated by the body. This enables us to offer a iron supplement of the highest quality, rich in nutrients. WHAT DOES IRON DO? Iron contributes to a healthy diet in many ways. This includes contributing to normal cognitive function, energy yielding metabolism and a reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Iron also contributes to the normal function of the immune system. Iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, oxygen transport in the body and has a role to play in the process of cell division. 100% BIODEGRADABLE TUB & LABEL Our supplements come with sustainability in mind.
