iron
Why is iron important?
Iron is a mineral the body cannot make for itself; it has to come from food, or from a supplement.Iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, to normal oxygen transport in the body, to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to normal cognitive function. Each tablet provides 14 mg – the full daily reference intake – as iron bisglycinate: iron chelated to glycine, an amino acid, and a different compound from the ferrous sulphate used in many iron tablets. Around it are the nutrients that belong with it. Vitamin C, because vitamin C increases iron absorption. Folate as L-methylfolate and vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin, which contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. And copper, which contributes to normal iron transport in the body. One small, smooth tablet, with or without food.

Frequently asked questions
What is iron bisglycinate?
A chelate: one iron atom bound to two molecules of glycine, an amino acid. It is the only form of iron in this tablet, and it is a different compound from ferrous sulphate or ferrous fumarate, the iron salts used in many iron tablets. Each tablet provides 14 mg of iron from it – 100% of the daily reference intake.
When should I take it – with food or without?
Either. One tablet a day, with or without food, at whatever time you will remember. Vitamin C increases iron absorption, and 60 mg of it is in the same tablet, so there is nothing else to take alongside it.
Why are folate, vitamin B12 and copper in an iron tablet?
Because each has a function of its own. Vitamin B12 and folate contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue; folate contributes to normal blood formation; vitamin B12 contributes to normal red blood cell formation; and copper contributes to normal iron transport in the body. The folate is L-methylfolate (200 µg, 100% NRV), the vitamin B12 is methylcobalamin (3 µg, 120% NRV) and the copper is copper bisglycinate (1 mg, 100% NRV).
Is this a medicine?
No. Iron Complex is a food supplement – a source of iron, vitamin C, folate, vitamin B12 and copper to take as part of a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. It is not a medicine and is not intended to replace one. If you have a question about your own health, take any medication or are under the care of a doctor, ask your doctor or pharmacist – they know your situation and we do not.
Is it vegan, and how long does a pouch last?
Yes – the tablet is suitable for vegans and vegetarians, and the formula is free from gluten, dairy, lactose, soya, nuts, sugar and GMO, with no unnecessary fillers. 120 tablets at one a day is a four-month supply. It is for adults only and not suitable for anyone under 18.
