Country Life Easy Iron 25 mg Iron Deficiency Supplement Capsule is an advanced iron supplement that contains ferrochel, a type of iron that is non-constipating and gentle on the stomach. Iron is essential for the formation of red blood cells. These red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body to support the body's energy. Iron deficiency is extremely common, and although low levels are often overlooked, a true deficiency can impact your overall health. Some iron supplements may upset your stomach which is why Country Life developed gentle iron pills as a more comfortable alternative. Ferrochel® (ferrous bisglycinate) is a patented chelated form of non-haem iron that passes through the stomach and small intestine without breaking apart. It has been shown to be more effectively absorbed than other types of iron chelate in healthy people with different iron levels. Being healthy is essential to being happy and Country Life believe that good health is an important part of treating yourself well. With a 40 year plus heritage of providing wellness, Country Life's high quality products have been helping you stay happy and healthy since 1971.
