Uses & Benefits
Feature Summary
Iron is a trace mineral found in hemoglobin and myoglobin, proteins present in red blood cells and muscle cells that carry oxygen to produce energy and remove waste carbon dioxide. Iron is also needed for the function of enzymes involved in energy production and is important for growth.
Poor iron status adversely effects overall health by reducing the energy available for essential metabolic processes. The demand for iron increases with pregnancy and breastfeeding, intensive exercise, and heavy blood loss.
Natural Factors Iron Chelate 25 mg is a factor in the formation and proper function of red blood cells. It helps prevent iron deficiency anemia and maintain good health. The iron is chelated, allowing it to be more readily absorbed and metabolized by the body, making it an ideal choice for those with low stomach acid or other digestive issues.
