Now Double Strength Iron 36mg Veg Capsules, Pack of 30's

Now Double Strength Iron 36 mg Non-Constipating Veg Capsules helps production of red blood cells and specific enzymes. Now uses Ferrochel™ Iron Bisglycinate, which has clinically demonstrated superior absorption and is well tolerated because it is gentle and non-constipating. Iron is also an essential nutrient for everyone especially for women in their reproductive years. If you have low levels of iron or iron deficiency (as diagnosed by your healthcare professional), supplemental iron should be considered while working with your health care practitioner. Teen girls and women with heavy menstrual cycles face a higher risk of low iron levels, as do pregnant women. Also, if you don’t eat a balanced diet rich in foods containing iron or take iron-depleting medications, you might need an iron-containing supplement. Iron helps to support metabolism, growth, development, and normal cellular functioning. Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin, a molecule that transports oxygen to the cells of the body, and myoglobin, which binds oxygen used in muscle tissues. But that’s not all iron is good for. The mineral also plays a role in energy production, growth, brain development, cellular functioning, and the synthesis of certain hormones. Without iron, your body can’t produce enough red blood cells, causing your body tissues to receive less oxygen than they need. Now Double Strength Iron is a comprehensive healthy blood formula that feed your body with the mineral which are the building blocks for healthy blood. Now Double Strength Iron has twice the Iron (36 mg per capsule) as in Now's regular strength product (18 mg per capsule).
