Easily absorbed iron supplement
Femineral® an iron supplement for the blood count and reduced fatigue
Iron deficiency is a common and sometimes overlooked health problem, especially in women. Iron plays a crucial role in the body by supporting the formation of red blood cells and ensuring that oxygen is transported efficiently to all cells. Iron also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue as well as to the normal function of the immune system. Women of childbearing age often need iron supplements, and it is estimated that 30% of women in the world have iron deficiency anemia. Low levels of iron are the most common reason why women between the ages of 13 and 50 are tired. Older people can also have iron deficiency. They often experience reduced appetite and then find it more difficult to get iron and have an aging intestine that does not absorb iron as easily.
For women of childbearing age, menstruation can be a significant cause of iron deficiency. Athletes, vegans and teenagers, as well as the elderly, may also need iron supplements. The blood loss associated with monthly menstruation can over time lead to a decrease in iron levels in the body. It is important for women to be aware of their iron levels and, if necessary, consider supplementation to compensate for the blood loss. Another common cause of iron deficiency is insufficient iron in the diet and the inability to absorb iron into the bloodstream.
Recognizing the symptoms of iron deficiency is crucial for addressing the problem in a timely manner. Fatigue, paleness, shortness of breath and difficulty concentrating are common indications. If these symptoms occur, it is wise to consult a doctor to get a proper diagnosis and determine the appropriate treatment.
It has long been known that iron absorption is improved if important minerals such as zinc, manganese, copper and selenium are added at the same time. The trace elements selenium, iodine and boron, as well as vitamins, such as vitamin C, folic acid and B12, also increase iron absorption. There are also mineral-rich plants that are traditionally used for iron and anemia that improve the absorption of iron.
Femineral is a vegan easily absorbed iron and mineral supplement, where the iron contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin and reduces tiredness and fatigue*. Femineral has a balanced composition of iron, other minerals, vitamins and Russian root.
