High-dose iron + vitamin C for optimum iron absorption

The role of iron in haematopoiesis and energy supply

Iron plays a crucial role in various metabolic processes in our body, particularly in haematopoiesis and energy production. The essential trace element is essential for the formation of haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen around the body. A lack of iron can lead to anaemia, which can result in fatigue, weakness and reduced cognitive function. Iron also plays a key role in the process of cellular respiration, where nutrients are converted into energy. Without sufficient iron, this process can be disrupted. Vitamin C plays an important role in the absorption of iron from our diet. A combination such as in our iron + vitamin C capsules is therefore ideal to ensure that the body receives an adequate supply.

Iron deficiency - more common than you think

Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies. The first signs of a deficiency can be tiredness, paleness, concentration problems and headaches. The causes are varied and range from inadequate iron intake through the diet to illnesses that can impair iron absorption. Women in particular have a higher risk of iron deficiency due to blood loss during menstruation, pregnancy and breastfeeding. To prevent iron deficiency, a balanced diet with iron-rich foods such as red meat, offal, pulses and nuts in combination with foods rich in vitamin C is recommended. Food supplements such as capsules with iron and vitamin C can support an optimal supply.

Iron + vitamin C capsules for vegetarian and vegan diets

People on a vegan diet should pay particular attention to their iron intake, as the iron content of plant-based iron sources such as pulses, nuts, seeds and dark leafy vegetables is not only lower, but the iron is also less easily absorbed by the body than that from animal foods. The iron capsules from Astrid Twardy are an ideal supplement for vegetarian and vegan diets: They are 100% vegan, contain high-dose iron (40 mg per capsule) and also vitamin C, which supports iron absorption.
