Salus Floravit Gluten Free Liquid Iron 500ml
Iron is a nutrient that essential for the delivery of oxygen to every cell in the body.
During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the body requires significantly more iron to meet the demands for the growth and development of a child1,2.
The best way to understand your iron status is by having a blood test to measure something called ferritin, which is our iron storage.
Some groups of people are likely to have low iron, including:
- During pregnancy and breastfeeding2
- Vegans and vegetarians1
- Women with heavy periods1
- People lacking a nutrient-rich diet1,4
- Children with behavioural concerns or ADHD9
- People taking acid blocking medications for heartburn1
- People with digestive conditions such as Celiac disease, colitis, Crohn's disease, and SIBO1
It can be challenging to get enough iron from diet alone, especially given the increased requirements for iron during pregnancy and breastfeeding2. Nausea, constipationand food aversions can make it even more challenging to eat a diet high in iron. Health Canada recommends daily iron supplementation of 16-20mg during pregnancy2.
Floravit is a liquid iron supplement that is safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and it promotes the formation of healthy red blood cells. The iron is in form called ferrous gluconate, which is effectively absorbed, gentle on the stomach, and unlikely to cause digestive upset or constipation11.
Floravit provides vitamins B1, B2, B6 and B12. These vitamins work synergistically with iron to promote the formation of healthy red blood cells to treat and prevent anemia during pregnancy and postpartum. In addition, B vitamins are essential for the conversion of oxygen into energy once it has been delivered to our cells12.
Floravit contains a combination of nutrient-rich vegetables, fruits and herbs that have been carefully selected to improve the digestion and absorption of iron. It is free from alcohol,artificial colours and flavours, and is yeast, dairy, and gluten free, and vegan-friendly.
Floravit is also suitable for children, adolescents, and non-pregnant individuals who require supplementation to achieve healthy iron levels.
