Description
Iron is one of the most important minerals that the human body cannot produce on its own. Iron is found in both animal- and plant-based foods. Iron from animal sources, such as meat, is absorbed by the body at a rate of 15-35%, while iron from plant sources is absorbed at 2-20%. Vitamin C helps iron absorption.
Iron is a trace element. This means our body only needs it in small amounts. The male body contains approximately 4-4.5g of iron; women somewhat less. Nonetheless, it’s essential for the functioning of the body’s cells. We mainly need it to transport oxygen around the body. Iron is also a very important part of our DNA and helps the body produce collagen.
Swedish Nutra’s unique liquid supplement is exactly what you need if you suffer from frequent fatigue and weakness. High iron content combined with a B-vitamin complex, added fruit and herb extracts, and of course Vitamin C, provide your body with exactly what it needs to function properly.
The body needs iron for:
- blood formation, where it’s used to synthesise haemoglobin and myoglobin. Iron plays a key role in binding and transporting the oxygen essential for life within haemoglobin, i.e. it’s involved in carrying oxygen from the lungs to the tissues,
- the biomolecules involved in producing ATP (adenosine triphosphate, the body’s operational energy carrier in cells) and helping neutralise foreign compounds that enter the body, thereby increasing resistance to stress and illness,
- reducing fatigue and maintaining normal skin colour.
The body loses iron through urination, bowel movements, sweating and shedding old dead skin cells, as well as through bleeding, which is why women are more likely to suffer from iron deficiency.
Some sources claim that up to 30% of the population suffers from iron deficiency, and if left untreated, long-term iron deficiency can lead to anaemia and other health problems.
Low iron levels in our body are closely linked to blood loss, including regular heavy menstruation. Of course, anaemia can also be caused by illnesses associated with bleeding. Iron deficiency can also be caused by impaired iron absorption.
Swedish Nutra’s iron supplement also contains B vitamins. Some B vitamins are better known by name than by number, such as riboflavin or biotin.
Some B-complex vitamins interact with one another. For example, Vitamin B2 is important for the metabolism of vitamins B3 and B6. Taking a B-vitamin complex has a different effect than taking B vitamins individually. The B-complex participates in various functions in our body, such as converting food into energy, which reduces physical fatigue. They also contribute to the optimal, healthy functioning of the nervous system and mental function. B vitamins help maintain healthy hair, nails and skin.
Fruit and herb extracts
The product is also enriched with fruit and herb extracts. Acai is a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralise free radicals. Blueberries are excellent for helping prevent Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease. Broccoli is an excellent source of calcium and Vitamin C. Aloe vera has many beneficial properties, such as lowering blood pressure and stabilising blood sugar. Alfalfa contains vitamins A, C, E, minerals and amino acids. The bioflavonoid complex is a vitamin-rich citrus extract. Barley is also a source of vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Turmeric has a strong anti-inflammatory effect.
Swedish Nutra’s liquid supplements are the best choice for replenishing vitamins and minerals the body lacks, since in liquid form the body can absorb up to 99% of vitamins and minerals, compared to only 30-40% in capsule form. Swedish Nutra products contain no synthetic fragrances or flavourings, are GMO-, gluten- and lactose-free, and suit everyone. As a bonus, they have a wonderfully natural sweet taste.
