NICAPUR® Ferroverde® 14 – Naturally fermented iron with vitamin C from acerola

Additional product information

NICAPUR® Ferroverde® 14 is a dietary supplement for the targeted supplementation of daily iron intake. The formula combines 14 mg of iron from a fermented source with natural vitamin C from the acerola fruit.

Each capsule contains 355 mg of the patented MyccoFerrin® complex. The iron it contains is produced with the help of the koji fungus Aspergillus oryzae through a special fermentation process.

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

Vitamin C improves iron absorption 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.

The body of an adult contains approximately three to five grams of iron. A large proportion of this is contained in the haemoglobin of red blood cells.

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

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

An adequate iron supply is therefore important for numerous normal bodily functions.

Iron for energy and less fatigue

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

With an insufficient iron supply, iron stores can decrease. A pronounced iron deficiency can impair the formation of haemoglobin and lead to iron deficiency anaemia.

Tiredness and exhaustion can have various causes. For persistent complaints, a medical clarification should therefore be sought.

MyccoFerrin® – Iron from natural fermentation

NICAPUR® Ferroverde® 14 contains the MyccoFerrin® complex.

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

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

A special manufacturing process creates an iron source that is suitable for use in dietary supplements.

The formula 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.

Through the combination with acerola fruit juice powder, NICAPUR® Ferroverde® 14 supplements iron intake with a natural vitamin C source.

When can additional iron supplementation be beneficial?

An increased iron requirement or an increased risk of inadequate iron intake 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

• With a vegetarian or vegan diet

• With intensive physical activity

• With insufficient iron intake through the diet

Whether additional iron supplementation is necessary depends on individual requirements and existing intake.

If iron deficiency is suspected, laboratory tests, particularly a complete blood count and ferritin, can help with assessment.

Important notes

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

Do not exceed the recommended daily intake.

Iron supply: Long-term use of iron supplements should be based on individual requirements. If iron deficiency is suspected, determining appropriate laboratory values is advisable.

Iron overload: In cases of hemochromatosis, elevated iron stores, or other disorders of iron metabolism, the product should not be used without medical advice.

Interactions: Iron can impair the absorption of certain medications, particularly levothyroxine, some antibiotics, and bisphosphonates. Appropriate dosing intervals must be observed.

Calcium supplements, coffee, and tea can reduce iron absorption. Staggering intake may be advisable.

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

In sensitive individuals, iron supplements can cause gastrointestinal complaints such as nausea, constipation, or diarrhea. Dark discoloration of the stool is possible.

Storage

Store at room temperature, dry, and protected from light. Protect from heat and keep out of the reach of small children.
