A highly soluble iron compound and special iron-fed yeast: Combined with B vitamins & vitamin C to provide the highest possible absorption rate Highly absorbable iron compounds Floradix boasts the highest possible iron absorption rate: up to 25% (4) is absorbed for potential utilization (that's more than twice the absorption of other iron supplements or even dietary iron) due to its liquid format as well as the organically bound iron gluconate and co-factors. Better absorption means you don't need to take as much. In a recent study, it was found that due to the high absorption rate of Floradix, very little unabsorbed iron enters into the intestinal tract and therefore constipation is unlikely to occur. Safe, useable dosage Because Floradix is so highly absorbable, the dosage can be much lower than other iron supplements while still satisfying daily supplemental iron requirements. As well, there is no risk of excess iron storage (2), making Floradix safe for long-term, daily use. No harmful additives: No lead, pesticide residues, alcohol, preservatives or artificial colouring Are You Low in Iron? Iron is one of the most common dietary deficiencies, affecting as many as 4-5 billion people or 66-80% of the world's population, according to the World Health Organization. Iron deficiency (pre-anemia) and anemia have also been linked to PMS, mood related disorders, decreased fertility, and complications in pregnancy. An early diagnosis of pre-anemia can be achieved with a simple blood test called serum ferritin, allowing for easy correction and prevention of the progression of symptoms. Why Do We Need Iron? Iron is needed daily in order for your body to keep making new red blood cells, which transport oxygen and permit energy production. Vital for growth and optimal functioning, iron is required in varying amounts throughout the stages of your life. Research has shown that declining iron stores are responsible for numerous health concerns. Floradix/Floravit is non-constipating for 2 main reasons: Ferrous gluconate in liquid form is very well-absorbed.The dose contains 10mg of elemental iron – a safe amount that can easily be all absorbed.Pharmacy iron tablets often cause constipation because they contain far too much iron to be absorbed at once (for example 60mg elemental iron) and forms like ferrous sulphate are not absorbed as well as ferrous gluconate.
