This highly bio-available formulation delivers 100% of the recommended daily allowance of iron and vitamin C, the amount considered necessary to ensure dietary sufficiency. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and assists in the absorption of iron in the body. The citrate form of iron is more suitable for people who experience gastro-intestinal problems. Iron is an essential mineral required in the body for the production of haemoglobin and myoglobin. Haemoglobin is a pigment found in red blood cells, which is responsible for carrying oxygen to every living cell in the body. Myoglobin is the red pigment found in muscle cells and helps in the storage of oxygen in muscles. According to the World Health Organization, dietary deficiency of iron is the most prevalent mineral deficiency in the world today. Pregnant and menstruating women, adolescents, the elderly, athletes, vegetarians and vegans may have an increased dietary requirement for iron.
