IRON ADVANCED + C

Iron is an essential mineral that supports the formation of haemoglobin and myoglobin, the proteins responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body. Adequate iron helps maintain energy production, cognitive function, immune health, and overall wellbeing.

Iron plays a critical role in oxygen delivery to working muscles and cellular energy production. Low iron availability can increase fatigue, reduce endurance, impair recovery, and limit training adaptations, making optimal iron status a key performance factor.

Ferrochel® is a patented iron bisglycinate chelate, meaning the iron is bound to two glycine amino acids. This structure protects the iron during digestion and allows it to be absorbed through amino acid pathways, resulting in superior bioavailability and improved gastrointestinal tolerability compared to traditional iron salts.

Vitamin C enhances the absorption of non-haem iron by maintaining it in its more easily absorbed ferrous form. It also supports immune defence, energy metabolism, and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.

Yes. The chelated structure of Ferrochel® helps minimise common gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, constipation, and stomach discomfort often associated with traditional iron supplements.

This formula is ideal for:

• Endurance and high-volume training athletes
• Menstruating women
• Individuals following vegetarian or vegan diets
• Athletes training at altitude
• Those with low dietary iron intake
• Individuals experiencing fatigue linked to low iron

Supplementation should always be guided by a healthcare professional.

Yes. Iron is stored in the body as ferritin, and low ferritin levels can occur before anaemia develops. Even without anaemia, depleted iron stores may reduce physiological reserves and contribute to feelings of low energy or unexplained fatigue.

Iron requirements for athletes may be up to 70% higher than sedentary individuals due to factors such as sweat loss, increased red blood cell turnover, mechanical stress from repetitive movement, and altitude exposure.

Yes. IRON ADVANCED + C is Informed Sport Certified, meaning every batch is tested for banned substances. This provides confidence for professional and recreational athletes competing under anti-doping regulations.

Take one tablet daily, or as directed by your healthcare professional. For optimal absorption, iron is best taken on an empty stomach, one hour before food or two hours after a meal. Avoid consuming iron alongside caffeine sources such as coffee or tea, as these can inhibit absorption.

Some studies suggest alternate-day dosing may enhance iron absorption in iron-deficient females by allowing the body’s iron-regulating hormones to stabilise between doses. Consult your healthcare professional to determine the dosing strategy best suited to your individual needs.
