Iron Chewable - 60 Tablets | Seeking Health
Iron Chewable is a well-tolerated and delicious chewable iron with added vitamin C to support iron absorption.
Iron is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies across the world. This is because iron can be a difficult mineral for people to absorb. Many people require iron supplementation to maintain healthy iron levels. This ferric glycinate form of iron is gentle on the stomach, taste-free, and well-tolerated by those sensitive to iron dietary supplements.
Fatigue, light-headedness, and cold hands and feet are all signs of iron deficiency anaemia. This is because iron is critical for delivering oxygen to cells. The body uses iron to make haemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body. Iron is also used to make myoglobin, a protein that provides oxygen for muscles. This oxygen helps to generate energy in every cell of your body.
Iron plays key roles in:
- Normal energy production
- Hormone synthesis
- Healthy metabolism
- Supporting muscle function
- Healthy immune system function
- Enzymatic reactions by serving as a cofactor nutrient
Unlike many standalone iron supplements, Iron Chewable includes vitamin C. This antioxidant is an important cofactor for the efficient absorption of iron.
Iron Chewable features a special "taste-free" form of iron (as ferric glycinate). The easy-to-chew, cherry-flavoured tablets are sweetened only with natural flavours and xylitol. This chewable option is a great-tasting way to get your daily iron. It’s also ideal for those who are not able to swallow capsules. People love that it is gentle on the stomach.
