Iron bisglycinate: a highly absorbable form, without digestive discomfort
Iron bisglycinate is a chelated form of iron that stands out for its superior digestive tolerance compared to other forms of iron. Thanks to its bond with glycine, an amino acid naturally present in the body, this form is better recognized by the organism, allowing optimal absorption without the unwanted effects often associated with traditional iron supplements like iron sulfate.
Each vegetable capsule of this iron-based dietary supplement provides a precise and effective dosage, ideal for balancing adequate iron levels in the blood. The 120-capsule presentation provides a two-month iron supply at the recommended rate of 2 capsules per day.
Iron bisglycinate and iron deficiency: a tailored response
Iron deficiency is one of the most common deficiencies worldwide, particularly among women, athletes, teenagers, and people suffering from digestive disorders affecting nutrient absorption. This deficiency can manifest as fatigue, shortness of breath, paleness, or decreased immunity.
This iron dietary supplement, containing iron bisglycinate with 14 mg of elemental iron per daily serving, responds precisely to the iron needs of these populations. It provides a superior quality iron source without the risk of exceeding the recommended dose, while respecting digestive comfort.
The benefits of iron in bisglycinate form
Iron is an essential trace element involved in many vital biological functions. The health claims authorized by health authorities remind us that iron plays a fundamental role in:
- The normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin
- The normal transport of oxygen in the body
- The normal functioning of the immune system
- The reduction of fatigue
- Energy metabolism
- Normal cognitive function
- Normal cognitive development in children
- The process of cell division
Thus, iron bisglycinate is recommended in all situations where iron supplementation is desirable: chronic fatigue, heavy menstruation, during pregnancy, vegetarianism, convalescence, iron deficiency, or weakened iron status.
Why choose iron bisglycinate rather than another form?
Unlike ferric iron or heme iron, iron in the form of bisglycinate is highly bioavailable, meaning it enters the bloodstream without interfering with the microbiome or creating abnormal iron buildup. This form of iron is gentle on the digestive system and causes neither constipation, nor nausea, nor irritation of the intestinal mucosa.
It is thus recommended by health professionals who wish to limit the side effects of their prescriptions. The Ferrochel iron used here is a benchmark in terms of quality and bioavailability.
