Floravital Iron + $34.99 $43.99

This tonic is vegetarian, suitable for children and alcohol-free. Vitamin C is included in these supplements, along with other herbs and B-vitamins, to maximize the absorption rate of iron and assist digestion. Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies worldwide, because iron is difficult to get and absorb in the proper amount from the diet alone. Iron is essential for hemoglobin formation and for the effective circulation of oxygen throughout the body. Without adequate levels of iron in the blood one will be left feeling tired. Women are more likely to suffer from anemia and low blood-iron because menstruation, pregnancy and breastfeeding tax their iron stores. Vegetarians are at risk and so are those who eat little red meat because red meat is the highest dietary source of iron. Seniors often require an iron supplement due to decreased nutrient absorption.

Pregnant women and nursing mothers can take our pregnancy formulation FABFOL Plus. FAB Iron Tablets are easy to take, easy to absorb and easy on your stomach DIRECTIONS: Take 2 to 4 tablets daily or as directed Thiamine (B1): Necessary for adrenal gland function, proper immune system performance and the synthesis of neurotransmitters. It plays a role in the metabolism of food and alcohol. Symptoms of deficiency can include poor memory, fatigue, muscle weakness. Requirements increase in those whose diets are high in refined carbohydrates, sugar and alcohol. Riboflavin (B2): Necessary for energy production and oxygen utilization. Needed for the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats; a study by the Australian Bureau of Statistics found 38% of females were not receiving the RDI.The symptoms of low levels include fatigue, anaemia. Nicotinamide: Niacin helps in the release of energy and in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Whilst is does have many other uses it is this which is of most benefit in FAB. Deficiency can cause depression and mental disturbance as well as the more likely pellagra which is sunburn like eruptions when exposed to the sun. Pantothenate (B5): Essential for human growth reproduction and many normal body functions. It is involved in many metabolic pathways including energy metabolism of carbohydrates proteins and lipids and is involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters and to make red blood cells. Pyridoxine (B6): Pyridoxine is involved in more bodily functions than any other single nutrient. It promotes red blood cell formation, is needed for normal brain function and synthesis of nucleic acids RNA and DNA. It activates many other enzymes and aids in the absorption of vitamin B12 which is needed in immune system function and antibody production. Necessary for the metabolism of amino and plays a role in the use of fats and in the production of bile. Cyanocobalamin (B12): Cyanocobalamin is needed to prevent anaemia. It aids folic acid regulating the formation of red blood cells. It helps in the utilisation of iron, aids cell formation and the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats, prevents nerve damage and promotes normal growth and development by maintaining the fatty sheaths that cover and protect nerve endings. Vitamin B12 can often be lacking in the diets of vegetarians and over the longer term can lead to macrocytic anaemia. Useful for vegetarians especially during pregnancy and lactation where requirements increase. Deficiency results in pernicious anaemia with ineffective production of red blood cells, possible loss of the lining of the intestines and ineffective nerve sheath production Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C): This helps increase non heam iron absorption and it plays a role in the formation and maintenance of collagen. Biotin Important for the maintenance of healthy hair, skin and nails. Iron: Recent research is showing that low iron can impair cognitive ability i.e. poor recognition of events and problem solving as well as lower IQ for younger females; impair athletic performance and endurance; lesson stamina; create tiredness and feelings of lassitude

Bio Iron For Women $15.99 $22.99

Features and benefits Specifically formulated for women\'s needs - combines iron with co-factors for improved absorption and utilisation Contains vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which when taken at the same time as iron achieves a significantly higher absorption of nonheme iron. Gentle on the stomach formula - when used as directed should not cause gastric irritation or constipation How it works Without proper iron levels, cell oxygenation and energy production suffer, resulting in generalised fatigue, a decline in the body\'s detoxification mechanisms, and a reduction in resistance to infection. Iron is at the core of haemoglobin, binding oxygen to red blood cells, and is essential for muscle oxygen uptake and the activity of certain enzymes. Blackmores Bio Iron contains ferrous fumarate, a gentle form of iron which when used as directed should not cause gastric irritation or constipation. Vitamin C is included to facilitate uptake of iron. Vitamin B12 is essential for the functioning of enzymes in amino acid, fatty acid, and nucleic acid metabolism, and is also required for the metabolism of folic acid. Foetal formation increases the mother\'s need for folic acid and deficiency is common during pregnancy. Supplementation of folic acid is recommended for at least one month prior to conception and for the duration of the pregnancy, and may reduce the incidence of neural tube defect in the child. Additionally, deficiency of folic acid (along with vitamin B6), is associated with elevated plasma levels of homocysteine. Dosage Adults - Take one tablet three times daily with meals, or as professionally prescribed. Children (from 6 years to 12 years) - we recommend Blackmores Celloid Iron Compound. Children (under 6 years) - Only as professionally prescribed. Active Ingredients Per Tablet Ferrous fumarate (equivalent to elemental iron 5 mg) 15.3 mg Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) 100 mg Folic acid 166.5 mcg Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) 50 mcg Urtica dioica (Nettle) herb powder 100 mg
