Solgar® Gentle Iron 20 mg is a highly absorbable iron supplement that is particularly suitable for those with a sensitive stomach.The iron in the product is in a gentle bisglycinate form and is suitable for people who normally experience bloating, constipation, or other symptoms when taking iron supplements.
Iron is an essential mineral required for many different functions in the body. People who follow a varied diet generally get enough iron from food, as iron is found in the highest amounts in meat, offal, nuts, eggs, cereals, and green leafy vegetables. An iron supplement may be particularly useful for vegetarians and vegans, or for those whose iron levels have fallen.
Iron helps prevent tiredness and fatigue by supporting normal energy production in the body. Iron also participates in the transport of oxygen in the cells, thus supporting endurance and the normal function of the immune system.
Sometimes iron can irritate the digestive tract, which is why Solgar Gentle Iron contains iron in bisglycinate form, which is highly absorbable and gentle on the stomach.
The recommended dosage of Solgar® Gentle Iron 20 mg is 1 capsule daily.
