Product Details
Iron-deficiency anemia is the most prevalent type of anemia in North America and can cause fatigue, weakness, headaches, and poor concentration. Particularly susceptible are women of childbearing age and pregnant women, children, undernourished labourers, and the very poor. In children, deficiency can result in irreversible impairment of growth and cognitive development, emotional problems, and impaired immune function. Common problems with iron supplementation have included poor bioavailability, extensive inhibition by dietary components (most notably phytates), and gastrointestinal side effects. Iron chelated with the amino acid glycine is more highly absorbable and elicits greater clinical efficacy than other forms while exhibiting minimal digestive discomfort.

Iron Bound To Amino Acids For Superior Nutrition
Iron glycinate, also known as iron bisglycine chelate, is composed of one unit of inorganic iron bound to two glycine molecules that protect it from dietary inhibitors and intestinal interactions in the duodenum, thereby increasing bioavailability . All three components are utilized by the body as precursors to hemoglobin, the protein responsible for the delivery of oxygen to peripheral tissues.
