Ingredients explained
Iron (as ferrous bisglycinate chelate) (Ferrochel)
Ferrous bisglycinate chelate is a highly absorbable form of iron that supplies elemental iron for haemoglobin and myoglobin production and supports oxygen transport.
Caution: High iron intake may cause gastrointestinal discomfort; keep away from children due to risk of accidental overdose.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)
Vitamin C can enhance non-heme iron absorption by reducing ferric iron to the more absorbable ferrous form in the gut.
Caution: May cause mild stomach upset in some people; taking with food can improve tolerance.
Folate (as L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate calcium)
Methylfolate provides the active folate form used in DNA synthesis and red blood cell formation.
Caution: High intakes may mask low vitamin B12 status; consistent daily use is typically adequate without exceeding directions.
Vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin)
Methylcobalamin supports red blood cell formation and one‑carbon metabolism involved in energy production.
Caution: Very high doses are generally well tolerated but may be unnecessary for those with adequate dietary intake.
L-Histidine (as L-histidine HCl)
Histidine is an essential amino acid involved in haemoglobin structure and may aid iron utilisation.
Caution: Amino acids are usually well tolerated at supplemental amounts; take as directed.
How they work together
Iron bisglycinate provides absorbable iron, while vitamin C enhances its uptake in the intestine. Folate and vitamin B12 supply key cofactors for red blood cell production, and histidine supports haemoglobin structure. Together they address iron utilisation and healthy blood-building processes from complementary angles.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if the safety seal is damaged or missing. If pregnant, nursing or on medication, consult a healthcare practitioner. Accidental overdose of iron-containing products may be fatal in children under 6; in case of overdose, call a doctor or poison control centre immediately.
Who should be cautious: People taking thyroid medications, certain antibiotics, or levodopa may need to separate dosing from iron by at least 2 hours, as iron may reduce absorption. Those with a history of iron overload or digestive sensitivity may also wish to discuss use with a healthcare provider. As this product contains iron, consult a healthcare provider before combining with medications that may interact.
Storage: Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
