Why Vitality iron bisglycinate chelate is the best iron capsules you can buy:
- Iron bisglycinate in tested quality: Vitality iron bisglycinate chelate is tested for its active ingredient content and its purity by an independent laboratory with the latest analysis technology. So, you can be sure that you are taking a high-quality iron supplement.
- Very high bioavailability: Iron bisglycinate is a combination of iron and glycine. Glycine has the smallest molecule of all amino acids, and can therefore effectively infiltrate iron into the body through the intestinal wall. The iron contained in iron bisglycinate chelate is therefore very bioavailable and can be optimally absorbed by the body.
A study shows that iron bisglycinate is 59% better absorbed by the body than e.g.iron sulfate, which is contained in most iron preparations. Iron bisglycinate can also be absorbed by the body if iron-blocking foods such as coffee, tea, or fibre are available at the same time. This is also a significant advantage over other iron compounds.
- Optimal dosage: Orthomolecular doctors know that iron is a highly reactive mineral that can damage the cells if the dosage is too high. Therefore, in the case of iron deficiency, only the dose that is necessary to bring the iron level into the normal range should be taken. Under no circumstances should high-dose iron supplements containing more than 30 mg of iron be taken.
The Vitality iron bisglycinate capsules contain the optimal dosage of 14 mg iron. Due to its exceptionally high quality and bioavailability, this dose is sufficient in most cases to compensate for an iron deficiency in a short time. Only in rare cases may it be necessary to take 2 capsules a day for 2-3 weeks. It is advisable to take 1 capsule in the morning and in the evening in order not to supply the body with too much iron at once.
- Optimized with the copper co-factor: Copper is significantly involved in iron metabolism, as it converts divalent iron into trivalent iron as part of the enzyme ceruloplasmin. A lack of copper can lead to an iron deficiency. Supplementing iron with copper supports normal iron transport in the body.
- Optimized with vitamin C for better iron absorption: Iron bisglycinate also contains vitamin C, as studies show that it can increase iron absorption. In contrast to conventional iron tablets, with iron bisglycinate, it is not necessary to take high doses to raise the iron level.
- Very well tolerated: Iron bisglycinate is considered the most tolerable iron compounds and is also suitable for a sensitive stomach. Side effects when taking the iron bisglycinate capsules are therefore very rare. A comparative study showed that 32% of the study participants had gastrointestinal problems when taking iron sulfate.
- Guaranteed free from unwanted additives: Free from magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose, free from gelatin and allergens such as gluten, soy, and lactose, free from colourants and preservatives, guaranteed free from GMO substances.
- 100% vegan: Bottled in purely vegetable capsules. Guaranteed free from animal ingredients and suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
- Very good price/performance ratio: The high quality and purity of the iron bisglycinate chelate contained, its dosage, the absence of unwanted additives and its good compatibility ensure an exceptionally good price/performance ratio.
- Satisfaction Guarantee: We guarantee the quality of iron bisglycinate chelate with our 100-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied with the product, you can send it back and get the purchase price back.

contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system
has an important role in cell division
Possible effects of an iron deficit:
Pale skin
Cracking nails that develop lines
Cracks in the corners of the mouth
Hair loss (iron deficiency is one of the main reasons for hair loss in women)
Lack of concentration
Feeling tired and a general feeling of lack of energy
How can the iron absorption in the body be promoted or slowed down?
Iron is normally very difficult for the body to absorb. Iron intake is restricted, particularly in people who have too little gastric acid production.
But there are other reasons why the amount of iron consumed might not be sufficient. On the one hand, only 10% of the iron supplied per day is absorbed into the blood, depending on the type of food.
Certain foods, such as tannins in tea and coffee, bran, and other fibre and oxalic acid from spinach can hinder the absorption of iron. Tea and coffee should be taken no earlier than one hour after eating.
You can maximize iron absorption by combining foods high in iron, such as red meat, leafy greens, seafood, egg yolks, and nuts, with foods that are high in vitamin C, e.g. a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.
When it comes to your health, quality is most important. Therefore, our Vitality Nutritionals products undergo state-of-the-art independent laboratory analysis to verify label claims and to ensure that you get the highest quality nutrition supplements.
