Iron capsules: Best iron absorption thanks to vitamin C from rosehip
Did you know that many iron supplements are virtually ineffective because iron is difficult for the body to absorb?
With our IRON WITH VITAMIN C capsules, you are opting for two benefits at once - firstly, high-quality iron bisglycinate, the form of iron with the highest bioavailability, and secondly, the synergistic effect of combining it with vitamin C. This is because vitamin C has been shown to increase iron absorption in the body . This is because vitamin C has been proven to increase iron absorption in the body*.
Incidentally, women can also develop an iron deficiency due to heavy menstrual bleeding. The iron level can be easily determined by measuring the ferritin level in the blood.
Iron - the vital trace element
Iron is a vital trace element that plays a central role in numerous functions of our body. Our blood contains the highest proportion of iron. As an important component of red blood cells (haemoglobin), iron is essential for transporting oxygen in the blood, but also for cell formation, a functioning immune system and cognitive performance.*
How does iron deficiency manifest itself?
Iron deficiency anemia is the most common form of anemia worldwide. If the body lacks iron, the blood pigment haemoglobin, which transports oxygen from the lungs to every single cell in the body, cannot be formed.
An iron deficiency can manifest itself in the following symptoms
- chronic fatigue
- headaches
- cold hands and feet
- reduced performance
- difficulty concentrating
- nervousness
- increased susceptibility to infections
But cracked skin, especially at the corners of the mouth, hair loss or unsightly grooves in the fingernails can also indicate an undersupply.
BUT: Not all iron is the same
As the body cannot produce iron itself, it must be taken in through food. However, there are two different forms of the trace element: heme iron and non-heme iron.
The body can only absorb and utilize the bivalent iron, also known as heme iron, well. This is found exclusively in animal products. Plant-based foods, on the other hand, mainly contain the much less absorbable trivalent iron, the non-heme iron.
This is exactly where vitamin C comes into play: vitamin C has the special ability to convert trivalent iron into the bivalent form. For such an impressive achievement, vitamin C is entitled to the title of "promoter of iron absorption".
How do I know if I have an iron deficiency?
Vegetarian women of childbearing age, pregnant women and children are particularly susceptible to iron deficiency. According to studies, between 10 and 15 percent of all women of childbearing age in the western world suffer from clinical iron deficiency.1
Before taking iron supplements, it is advisable to check whether there is an iron deficiency. This can easily be determined by means of a small blood count at the family doctor.
By the way: For ideal absorption, you should take iron capsules on an empty stomach and wait an hour after taking them until your next meal. As coffee and green and black tea can inhibit iron absorption, you should avoid them during this period.
For higher iron absorption: natural vitamin C from rosehip
To increase iron absorption in the body, we have supplemented our iron capsules with vitamin C.* We use purely natural vitamin C from the extract of the particularly vitamin-rich rosehip fruit. Natural vitamin C remains active in the human body for longer than isolated, synthetic vitamin C. This ensures high bioavailability for optimum absorption and utilization.
Why did we choose rosehip? Because EISEN MIT VITAMIN C is a product made in Germany and the rose hip is one of our native plants - if not THE native plant - that contains a particularly high amount of vitamin C.
Another benefit: vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for normal blood vessel function*.
