Seeking Health Optimal Iron - 60 Chewable Tablets

Optimal Iron Chewable by Seeking Health provides well-tolerated‚ well-absorbed iron as ferric glycinate‚ along with vitamin C to support optimal iron absorption. Iron is a mineral that the body needs for healthy growth and development. The body uses iron to make hemoglobin‚ a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body‚ and myoglobin‚ a protein that provides oxygen to muscles. Iron is also important for normal synthesis of certain hormones and maintaining healthy connective tissues.

Iron requires certain supporting nutrients such as vitamin C for efficient absorption and utilization in the body. Low levels of these nutrients can make it difficult to increase iron levels even with supplementation. Vitamin C combines with iron during digestion to form a compound that is easier for the body to absorb and helps to minimize the effect of certain dietary compounds that interfere with iron absorption‚ such as calcium‚ phosphate‚ tannins (found in tea‚ coffee‚ and chocolate) and phytates (found in grains and nuts).
