Biotech USA - Iron Professional
Iron Professional has been formulated to provide more comprehensive support for a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle through the effects of the active ingredients on similar physiological functions compared to food supplements containing only iron.
Iron is an essential mineral whose compound forms with nitrogen and sulphur have contributed to the evolution of life and the release of oxygen into the atmosphere through photosynthesis.
Red meat, fish, legumes and dark green leafy vegetables, for example, contain significant amounts of iron. Much of the iron in foods of animal origin is present as part of complex proteins, such as haemoglobin, which is involved in the transport of oxygen. Haemoglobin consists of globin protein and a haem group. The porphyrin ring of the haem part contains the iron to which oxygen attaches itself.
In plant-based foods, iron is found in a different way, not as part of the haem. This difference affects the absorption properties of iron, and as a result iron from foods of animal origin has better bioavailability than plant-based iron. Although there are many other factors involved in iron absorption, all of these can be positively influenced.
This is where vitamin C comes in. In addition to helping protect cells against oxidative stress, it also enhances iron absorption, which is why we have added it to our formula.
Vitamin B12, or cobalamin, is mainly found in foods of animal origin, such as meat, fish, dairy products and eggs, which is why people following a vegan diet should pay attention to sufficient vitamin B12 intake. For this reason, we felt it was important to use a vegan-friendly variant when creating Iron Professional.
Folic acid, also known as vitamin B9, is found in many foods, with substantial quantities in dark green leafy vegetables, legumes and nuts. Our product contains folic acid in the form of active calcium L-methylfolate.
The product may be a suitable choice for those who, in addition to iron supplementation, wish to support the following physiological processes through other active ingredients:
