Description
Chief Nutrition Iron + C, 120 Capsules
Chief Nutrition's Iron + C is a real food haem iron supplement made from organic beef spleen and liver, two of nature's richest natural sources of haem iron. Acerola cherry, naturally high in vitamin C, is included to support iron absorption. Each bottle contains 120 capsules, giving 30 serves at 4 capsules per serve.
Why Haem Iron
Iron comes in two forms: haem iron, found in animal sources like liver and spleen, and non-haem iron, found in plant sources. Haem iron is generally easier for the body to absorb than non-haem iron. Pairing it with vitamin C, as this formula does with acerola cherry, is a well-known way to further support iron absorption, rather than relying on a synthetic iron compound alone.
What's In It
- Organic beef spleen and liver, sources of haem iron
- Acerola cherry for natural vitamin C
- 120 capsules, 30 serves per bottle
- Keto and Paleo, with organic ingredients
- Egg-free, nut-free, soy-free, rice-free, corn-free and wheat-free
- Dairy-free, lactose-free, caffeine-free and salt-free
- No added sugar, preservative-free and cruelty-free
This combination is what separates a real food iron supplement from a standard iron tablet. Rather than isolating a single mineral compound, Chief Nutrition's approach uses whole organic organ meat as the iron source, with acerola cherry doing the job a separate vitamin C tablet would otherwise need to do.
How To Use It
Take capsules as directed on the label alongside food or a drink. Because this is a real food supplement rather than an isolated compound, it sits well alongside other everyday nutrition rather than needing to be taken separately.
If you're building a wider whole food supplement routine, Chief Nutrition also makes an Organic Beef Liver capsule and an Organic Beef Offal Multivitamin, both built around the same real food, whole organ philosophy.
Capsules are also simply more convenient for a lot of people than liquid iron or chewable tablets, with none of the metallic aftertaste that puts some people off iron supplements altogether.
Good To Know
As with any iron supplement, it's worth checking with your doctor before starting if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, on medication or managing an existing health condition. Browse our Fitness Fuel collection for more everyday supplement options.
