According to epidemiological studies by the World Health Organization, dietary iron deficiency is the most widespread mineral deficiency worldwide. The risk of developing this deficiency affects both genders but is particularly increased in women of reproductive age (due to blood loss from menstruation and reduced dietary intake of red meat).
Lamberts® Iron 14mg contains iron in the form of ferrous citrate. The choice of citrate iron was made because the citrate salt of iron has increased solubility and, as a result, is characterized by higher absorption and bioavailability. Additionally, it is accompanied by a lower likelihood of gastrointestinal disturbances (such as constipation) compared to ferrous sulfate, which is the form used in the majority of iron supplements.
The avoidance of constipation is extremely important as the replenishment of depleted iron stores may take several months, which requires patient compliance with medical instructions. Like all Lamberts® supplements, Iron 14mg is manufactured in the United Kingdom according to strict Pharmaceutical GMP standards.
