Optimal Iron with Cofactors

Iron can be a difficult mineral to absorb.

For this reason, it is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies in the world.†

Many people are deficient in the specific nutrients required for iron to be absorbed and utilized. This is why standalone iron supplementation may not be effective at rebuilding or sustaining healthy iron levels.†

Optimal Iron provides a well-tolerated form of iron along with targeted nutrients that help to absorb and utilize the iron.†

Optimal Iron is an ideal choice for individuals with stubborn low iron levels. It contains 29 mg of elemental iron per capsule serving as Ferrochel® Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate. This form of iron is gentle on the stomach and well-tolerated by those sensitive to iron supplementation.†

Iron supplements frequently cause side effects such as stomach upset, nausea, or constipation. This can be due to the form of iron or poor iron metabolism.†

Optimal Iron is designed for those who need effective iron support, but are sensitive to most iron supplements. This gentle iron complex contains targeted nutrients that facilitate the absorption of iron.†

Many people struggle to absorb iron from whole foods and supplements. Iron requires supporting cofactor nutrients for its efficient absorption, transport, and utilization in the body. Low levels of these make it challenging to increase iron levels even with supplementation.†
