Women men, and especially your expected new baby need iron, in the right amounts.

Iron Folic lets women and men tailor their iron consumption. Iron is especially important for women who are in their childbearing years or pregnant, and for some men.

Iron supports various aspects of the immune system and is important in a wide range of biological processes. A healthy diet with adequate amounts of folic acid may reduce a woman's risk of having a child with brain or spinal-cord defects. Iron Folic is certified kosher dairy and halal.

Each tablet of Iron Folic contains:

A unique blend of iron from 3 sources – iron bisglycinate, iron fumarate, and mustard greens, one of nature's richest plant sources of iron.

Vitamin C, to increase the absorption of iron fumarate and iron bisglycinate.

200 mcg of folic acid to promote heart health and help maintain homocysteine levels that are already within the normal range.

Iron

Iron is a vital nutrient that plays an essential role in forming healthy red blood cells and transporting oxygen. It's estimated that as many as 62% of women over the age of 20 are not meeting the RDA for iron. Women also tend to be low in iron because they tend to eat foods low in iron and lose iron through menstruation.

Folic Acid

Folic Acid plays an important role during rapid fetal growth and development. Adequate intake of folic acid as part of a healthy diet before and in early pregnancy may reduce the risk of having a baby with a birth defect of the brain or spinal cord. All women of childbearing age are recommended to consume 400 mcg of folic acid everyday starting at least one month before conception into the early weeks of pregnancy.

Folic acid also plays a role in the maintenance of normal homocysteine levels; elevated levels of homocysteine are believed to be a risk factor of heart health.

Pregnancy Nutrients for You and New Baby

Ensuring you get enough nutrients during pregnancy is essential for both you and your growing baby. Iron and folic acid are two of the key nutrients you need.

Iron is required to help the red blood cells transport oxygen around the body. During pregnancy, there's an extra demand for iron and other vitamins, which are needed for women, the unborn baby and the placenta. Many women find their levels of iron depleting during this time, which can cause anaemia, so Iron Folic Acid supplement is an easy way for you and new baby to get this important nutrient.

Anaemia is especially common in women carrying twins, in those having pregnancies close together, in vegetarians, if you've had a loss of blood due to piles or stomach ulcers and if you haven't got enough folic acid in your diet. Anaemia can make you feel really tired, look pale, experience dizziness, breathlessness and palpitations. In severe cases, it can cause chest pain and headaches.

During pregnancy, your levels of iron should be checked at regular intervals. If it's found to be particularly low, inform your doctor that you wish to take Iron Folic Acid supplement to boost your iron levels.
