The structure of an amino acid chelate is so strong that our stomach acid cannot split it. This is due to the amino acids in the chelate form, which act as a protective layer for the iron. The iron bisglycinate thus reaches our intestines as a complete element, where our body then absorbs it. Moreover, we know that iron supplementation can sometimes be unpleasant for the stomach and intestines. However, due to the amino acid-chelated nature of iron bisglycinate, such complaints remain limited!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlways supplement iron and copper together\u003cbr\u003eBalance is the word on which the effectiveness of our mineral balance relies. Like on a scale, the various elements in our body are continuously weighed. The minerals we know have different relationships with each other. For example, iron and copper have a so-called double-sided antagonistic effect. In plain English, this means that an increased iron intake can lead to a reduced copper level and vice versa. To prevent reduced copper levels and support iron transport, our Iron Bisglycinate Complex therefore contains 50 mcg of copper per tablet in the easily absorbable form of gluconate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eScientifically substantiated cofactors\u003cbr\u003eThree supporting nutrients have been added to our Iron Bisglycinate Complex. Inadequate riboflavin levels (vitamin B2) often occur together with reduced iron balance. Furthermore, vitamin C, the nutrient we usually associate with immunity, promotes the absorption of iron from food. The immunity vitamin also ensures a higher iron content in our blood, where we need this valuable mineral. Due to its dual action, we therefore considered the addition of 200 mg of vitamin C to be well defensible!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSupplementing every other day prevents unfavorable bacterial growth\u003cbr\u003eHowever, taking an iron tablet three times a day for weeks to months can lead to stomach and intestinal discomfort. Even with the gentle iron bisglycinate. Recent research has shown exactly what causes this. The small intestine only absorbs fifteen percent of the consumed iron. The vast majority ends up in the large intestine, where the mineral stimulates the growth of unfavorable bacteria that cause complaints. The low iron absorption in the small intestine is related to the hormone hepcidin. When the release of the hormone into the blood decreases, iron absorption in the small intestine increases and vice versa. Research even shows that the liver releases more hepcidin up to 48 hours after taking an iron tablet, which results in worsened iron absorption in the small intestine. Supplementing iron every other day therefore offers a solution for iron-related intestinal discomfort!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreventing hepcidin increase ensures better iron absorption\u003cbr\u003eIntestinal discomfort is not the only problem we relate to daily iron supplementation. The higher hepcidin concentrations that arise after taking an iron tablet also have a detrimental effect. An increased release of the hormone restricts the incorporation of iron into red blood cells for approximately two days. In other words, after supplementing with the mineral, the iron tablets taken seem less effective in the 48 hours that follow. Research shows that most iron reaches the bone marrow, and thus the red blood cells, with every-other-day supplementation in a dosage of 40-80 mg.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClaims\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e- Iron supports the production of red blood cells, is good for normal oxygen transport in the body and contributes to the production of cells and tissues\n- Iron and copper have a beneficial effect on normal energy-yielding metabolism\n- Iron and vitamin B2 are good for fatigue and tiredness\n- Iron, copper, vitamin A, vitamin B2 and vitamin C have a positive influence on the immune system\n- Copper supports iron transport in the body\n- Vitamin A and vitamin B2 promote the availability of iron from body stores and are therefore beneficial for iron metabolism\n- Vitamin C promotes iron absorption and thereby increases the iron content in the blood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:450px\"\u003e\t\u003cthead\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003cth colspan=\"2\" style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eComposition per dose (1 tablet)\u003c\/th\u003e\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eRI*\u003c\/th\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\u003c\/thead\u003e\t\u003ctbody\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eIron (bisglycinate)\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e28 mg\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e200%\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eCopper (gluconate)\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e500 µg\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e50%\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eBeta carotene\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e2 mg\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e**\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eVitamin A (retinol acetate)\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e400 µg\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e50%\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eVitamin B2 (riboflavin)\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e5 mg\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e357%\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eVitamin C (ascorbic acid)\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e200 mg\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e250%\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e* Reference Intake\u003cbr\u003e\t\t\t** No RI established\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003emicrocrystalline cellulose (bulking agent), ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), Iron bisglycinate, vegetable oil (binder), Beta-carotene (Provitamin A), magnesium stearate (anti-caking agent), HPMC (coating), Riboflavin-5-phosphate (Vitamin B2), silicon dioxide (anti-caking agent), Copper bisglycinate, Retinol acetate (Vitamin A), glycerin (coating), HPC (coating)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsage\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eTake 1 to 3 tablets per day.
