Iron Complex 30mg capsules

Description
Health Leads Iron Complex combines 30mg of elemental iron from iron bisglycinate with vitamin C, vitamin B6, active folate (L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate) and vitamin B12 in a carefully balanced one-a-day vegetable capsule.
Iron is an essential mineral that contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, helping transport oxygen throughout the body. This formula has been developed to provide iron alongside complementary nutrients that each contribute to normal blood formation, energy metabolism or iron absorption.
Using iron bisglycinate together with active B vitamins creates a comprehensive nutritional formula in a simple additive-free capsule.
What Is Iron?
Iron is an essential trace mineral that the body cannot produce itself.
It is required for the production of haemoglobin, the protein within red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen from the lungs to tissues throughout the body.
Iron also contributes to normal cognitive function, normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Why Iron Bisglycinate?
This product provides iron as iron bisglycinate, a form in which iron is bound to the amino acid glycine.
Iron bisglycinate is widely used in food supplements and is commonly chosen because it is generally well tolerated while providing elemental iron in a convenient daily dose.
Each capsule provides 30mg of elemental iron.
Why Are These Nutrients Included?
Iron contributes to: normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, normal oxygen transport in the body, normal cognitive function, normal energy-yielding metabolism, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, the normal function of the immune system.
Vitamin C contributes to: increased iron absorption, the protection of cells from oxidative stress, the normal function of the immune system.
Vitamin B6 contributes to: normal red blood cell formation, normal energy-yielding metabolism, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Folate (L-5-MTHF) contributes to: normal blood formation, normal amino acid synthesis, normal homocysteine metabolism, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, the process of cell division.
Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin) contributes to: normal red blood cell formation, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal energy-yielding metabolism, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal homocysteine metabolism.
