NICAPUR® Ferroverde® 21 – Iron from natural fermentation with Vitamin C from Acerola

Further product information

NICAPUR® Ferroverde® 21 is a dietary supplement for targeted iron supply when requirements are increased. The formulation combines iron from a fermented source with natural vitamin C from acerola fruit.

Each capsule contains 530 mg of MyccoFerrin® complex with 21 mg of iron. The iron contained is produced with the help of the koji fungus Aspergillus oryzae through a special fermentation process. The formulation is supplemented with acerola fruit juice powder, which provides natural vitamin C.

Iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin, normal oxygen transport in the body, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Vitamin C improves the absorption of iron and thus complements the targeted iron supply.

Iron – Important for blood formation and oxygen transport

Iron is an essential trace element that the human body cannot produce itself.

An adult body contains approximately three to five grams of iron. A large part of this is contained in the hemoglobin of the red blood cells.

Hemoglobin enables the transport of oxygen from the lungs to the various tissues and organs.

Myoglobin, an oxygen-binding protein in the muscles, also contains iron.

Adequate iron supply is therefore important for numerous normal body functions.

Iron for energy and less tiredness

Iron contributes to normal energy metabolism and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

In case of insufficient iron supply, iron stores may decrease. Severe iron deficiency can impair the formation of hemoglobin and lead to iron deficiency anemia.

Tiredness and exhaustion can have various causes. Therefore, persistent symptoms should be medically examined.

MyccoFerrin® – Iron from fermentation

NICAPUR® Ferroverde® 21 contains the MyccoFerrin® complex.

This consists of acerola fruit juice powder and iron-enriched Aspergillus oryzae powder.

The ULTIMINE™ iron contained is produced with the help of a special fermentation process.

Aspergillus oryzae, also known as koji fungus, has been used for centuries in the fermentation of various foods.

The process enables the production of an iron source that is used in dietary supplements.

The formulation is designed for good tolerability. However, individual tolerability may vary.

Vitamin C from acerola – Supports iron absorption

Acerola (Malpighia emarginata) is a tropical fruit known for its natural vitamin C content.

Vitamin C improves the absorption of non-heme iron in the digestive tract.

By combining it with acerola fruit juice powder, NICAPUR® Ferroverde® 21 supplements the iron supply with a natural source of vitamin C.

When can additional iron supply be useful?

An increased iron requirement or an increased risk of insufficient iron supply may exist in the following situations, among others:

• In women with heavy menstrual bleeding

• During pregnancy and breastfeeding

• In children and adolescents during growth phases

• In a vegetarian or vegan diet

• During intensive sports activity

• In case of insufficient iron intake through the diet

Whether additional iron supply is required depends on individual requirements and existing supply.

In case of suspected iron deficiency, laboratory tests, especially a blood count and ferritin, can help assess the situation.

Important information

Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a balanced, varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Iron supply: Long-term intake of high-dose iron supplements should be based on individual requirements. In case of suspected iron deficiency, determining suitable laboratory values is advisable.

Iron overload: In case of hemochromatosis, increased iron stores, or other iron metabolism disorders, the preparation should not be used without medical advice.

Interactions: Iron may impair the absorption of certain medications, especially levothyroxine, some antibiotics, and bisphosphonates. Appropriate time intervals between doses should be observed.

Calcium supplements, coffee, and tea may reduce iron absorption. Taking them at different times may be advisable.

During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the dosage should be adjusted according to individual iron requirements and medical recommendations.

Iron supplements may cause gastrointestinal discomfort in sensitive individuals, such as nausea, constipation, or diarrhea. Dark-colored stools are possible.

Storage
