Testimonial .
Active iron has been an absolute game changer! As someone who suffers from PMDD and very low iron, especially during my menstrual week, Fatigue and general low energy take a massive dip. I’ve tried many iron supplements, but most have been very irritating to my gut, and my body has found it difficult to absorb. Active iron is a gentle, slow-release capsule combined with a fantastic multivitamin which is much easily absorbed, and leaves me feeling like ‘me’ again! Thank you, Active Iron, for your continued support.

FAQs .
When choosing an iron supplement, it is important to consider two factors: how much iron is available for absorption, and how likely the supplement is to cause unpleasant side effects.
Most iron supplements dissolve in the stomach. This can lead to oxidation and gut inflammation, which can lead to common side effects associated with iron supplements, such as constipation and nausea. Active Iron is different. Its ground breaking whey protein formula targets the right place for absorption, the DMT-1. This helps reduce oxidation, thus protecting the gut from inflammation. As a result, Active Iron is highly absorbed compared to other iron supplements¹, making it gentle on the stomach and clinical results have shown that it increases iron levels by 94%².

Active Iron comes in an easy to swallow capsule and not in pills or tablets format. Our multivitamin does come in a tablet format.
Active Iron is a food supplement and not a medicine, meaning our products contain 100-179% of the recommended daily allowance of iron, whereas prescription iron has a higher dose. For example, prescription iron may contain 100mg elemental iron. The issue with high dose iron is that it oxidises in the gut and as a result it is poorly absorbed (typically just 10% is absorbed). It is this oxidation and poor absorption that causes gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea and constipation in 8/10 people. Typically, 50% of people stop taking iron as a result of these side effects.
Most liquid iron supplements contain a much lower dose of iron which is why they can avoid these common side effects. Although this is a great benefit, they often do not provide sufficient iron to increase iron levels, with some only containing 5mg iron per serving.
Active Iron is different. Unlike other oral iron, it’s whey protein formula protects the iron from oxidation, allowing for 2X better absorption. As a result, Active Iron is clinically proven to increase iron levels by 94% and is gentle on the stomach, helping to prevent gastrointestinal side effects.
