Iron SR ALLNUTRITION120 capsules

ALLNUTRITION IRON SR is a dietary supplement in the form of prolonged-release capsules, based on iron, folic acid and vitamins C, B6 and B12, dedicated to pregnant women. Iron helps in the correct production of red blood cells and haemoglobin and in the correct transport of oxygen in the body.

Vitamin C increases the absorption of iron and helps to protect cells from oxidative stress, while folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.

Iron bisglycinate is well absorbed by the body. Chelation of iron increases its bioavailability, meaning the body can absorb this nutrient effectively. It is considered a safe ingredient and has a low toxic potential compared to some other forms of iron, such as iron sulphate or iron oxide.

What are micropellets?

Micropellets are small-sized microparticles in a capsule. Thanks to them, the substance from such preparations is released slowly and gradually, making it possible to achieve and maintain an optimum concentration of the active substance over a longer time. Unfavourable (and often unpredictable) fluctuations in the level of the active substance are then prevented, making the whole process of dietary supplementation very stable and effective.

Production of micropellets

The special cellulose coating used in the micropellets also protects the active substance. It is several dozen times thinner than a sugar coating, but plays the same role. It protects the active substances contained in the core against e.g. light, oxygen, moisture and provides the patient with comfort in taking the supplement by facilitating swallowing and masking the unpleasant taste of active substances.

In the case of fast-soluble coatings, it is not possible to achieve the so-called modified release of the active substance. The effect of modified release - delayed release (e.g. in the small intestine or slowed release along the entire gastrointestinal tract), which is decisive for achieving a prolonged effect, is possible only for coatings soluble in an alkaline environment or insoluble coatings, but with diffusion properties, i.e. for micropellets.
