IRON SR is a dietary supplement in the form of extended-release capsules, based on a source of iron, folic acid and vitamins C, B6 and B12, dedicated to pregnant women. Iron helps in the proper production of red blood cells and hemoglobin, as well as in the proper transport of oxygen in the body.
Vitamin C, in turn, increases iron absorption and helps protect cells from oxidative stress, while folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.
Iron diglycinate is well absorbed by the body. Iron chelation increases its bioavailability, which means the body can effectively utilize this nutrient. In addition, iron diglycinate is considered a safe compound, with a low toxic potential compared to other forms of iron, such as iron sulfate or iron oxide.
Micropellets are small-sized microparticles “encapsulated” in a capsule. Thanks to them, the substance from such preparations is released slowly and successively, so that it is possible to achieve and maintain an optimal concentration of the active substance over a longer period of time. We then prevent unfavorable (and often unpredictable) fluctuations in the level of active substances, making the whole process of dietary supplementation very stable and effective.
