Pure Encapsulations® Iron Complex – High-quality iron with vitamin C, B vitamins and copper for energy and blood formation

Additional Product Information

Pure Encapsulations® Iron Complex combines highly bioavailable iron in the form of iron glycinate with selected vitamins and trace elements. The carefully balanced formula supports the normal formation of red blood cells and oxygen transport in the body.

Iron is an essential trace element and plays an important role in the formation of hemoglobin, the red blood pigment. It contributes to normal energy metabolism and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

Iron Complex also contains vitamin C, vitamins B2, B6 and B12, folate, and copper. These nutrients complement each other in their functions and support various processes involved in iron metabolism and blood formation.

Iron – Important for Energy and Blood Formation

Iron is a vital trace element that the body needs for numerous metabolic processes.

It is a component of hemoglobin in red blood cells and enables the transport of oxygen from the lungs to various tissues and organs.

Iron also contributes to normal immune function and normal cognitive function.

Inadequate iron levels may manifest in tiredness, reduced performance, and lethargy, among other symptoms.

For whom is adequate iron intake particularly important?

An increased iron requirement or an increased risk of inadequate supply may occur particularly in:

• Women with heavy menstrual bleeding

• Pregnant women

• Adolescents during growth phases

• Endurance athletes

• Vegetarian or vegan diets

• Iron-deficient or unbalanced diets

Whether additional iron intake is necessary should be assessed, particularly for long-term use, based on individual requirements.

Iron Glycinate – Good Bioavailability and Tolerability

Pure Encapsulations® Iron Complex contains iron in the form of iron glycinate.

In this organic iron compound, iron is bound to the amino acid glycine. Iron glycinate is characterized by good bioavailability and is often better tolerated than some conventional iron compounds.

The capsules can also be taken with a meal, in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendation.

Vitamin C and Cofactors for Iron Metabolism

In addition to iron, the supplement contains other important micronutrients:

• Vitamin C: Increases iron absorption.

• Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin): Contributes to normal iron metabolism.

• Vitamin B6: Supports the normal formation of red blood cells.

• Vitamin B12: Contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells.

• Folate (Folic Acid): Supports normal blood formation and plays a role in cell division.

• Copper: Contributes to normal iron transport in the body.

The combination of these nutrients complements the functions of iron in the body.

Important Information

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

Do not exceed the recommended daily intake. Keep out of reach of young children and store in a cool, dry place.

Important: Iron supplements should not be taken at high doses long-term without a proven need. If iron deficiency is suspected, it is recommended to have a blood count and ferritin level checked.

In cases of iron overload, such as hemochromatosis, iron supplements may only be used under medical supervision.

Iron may interfere with the absorption of certain medications, including thyroid hormones and some antibiotics. Observe the appropriate time intervals between doses.
