Iron Complex™ features liquid liver fractions, a rich source of heme iron.
Heme iron is the most easily absorbed form of iron, and doesn't cause side effects such as nausea.
Iron complex also includes other synergistic factors known to increase absorption and promote healthy red blood cells.
Why is iron supplementation important? Many people, including women of child-bearing age, may not get enough iron through diet alone. Supplementing with iron helps support many healthy processes in the body.
Iron is a significant nutrient for energy and stamina, which affects physical work performance, immunity, body temperature, and cognitive functioning.
Critical to the entire process of respiration, iron helps form hemoglobin in red blood cells and is used to transport oxygen to cells throughout the body.
Why should someone use Iron Complex™ formula? It's a unique formulation that provides many advantages.
It combines non-heme iron with heme iron from liquid liver extracts, so it is gentler on the stomach than other iron supplements.
The energizing ingredients included in Iron Complex™ help fight occasional fatigue while providing the body with essential nutrients for healthy blood and cell maintenance.
Liver extract contains heme iron, the most easily absorbed form of iron. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that aids in iron absorption, transport, and storage.

Highly-absorbable iron with liquid liver fractions
Does Iron Complex™ cause constipation? While constipation is a common side effect of non-heme iron supplements, the heme iron in Iron Complex™ has less of a constipating effect. If you do experience constipation, simple dietary changes may help alleviate the problem. Slowly increase the fiber in your diet by including whole grain breads, cereals, fruits, and vegetables. Drink at least 8 cups of fluids daily and get some moderate exercise (as recommended by your physician) such as walking or bike riding.
What do you do to ensure the safety of glandular extracts?
All glandulars used in our products are produced in facilities that are registered and inspected by the United States Department of Agriculture. In addition to federal inspections, all of the glandular materials received at our facility are also subjected to numerous laboratory analyses, including tests for contamination with yeast, molds, and bacteria such as E. coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus.
Can Iron Complex™ and a calcium supplement be taken at the same time?
Research has shown that calcium can interfere with the absorption of iron. Therefore, we recommend taking Iron Complex™ and the calcium supplement at different times of the day, at least two hours apart.
