Iron Bisglycinate is elemental iron reacted with glycinate for superior absorption in the intestinal tract, which is the best source of iron and is easy on the stomach.
Unlike traditional iron supplements, Iron Bisglycinate is gentle on the digestive system and is much less likely to cause constipation, nausea, or stomach upset due to its chelated form.
Unabsorbed iron passes through the gut and is excreted. This can cause stool discolouration and digestive discomfort — a common issue with less bioavailable iron forms.
The appropriate dose depends on your individual needs. A healthcare professional can assess your iron levels through blood work and recommend the right dosage for you.
Yes, iron and calcium can compete for absorption. It is generally recommended to take iron and calcium supplements at different times of the day for optimal uptake of both.
Cofactors such as Vitamin C, B12, and folate work synergistically with iron to enhance absorption and support red blood cell production, making your supplement more effective.
