According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC), up to 16 percent of individuals in some populations is deficient in iron. Iron is difficult for the body to absorb, and supplementing with conventional forms of iron, including ferrous sulfate, can cause gastrointestinal side effects — such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, and dark-colored stools. Thorne's Iron Bisglycinate contains iron reacted with glycine to optimize its absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, thus minimizing the typical side effects of iron supplementation.*\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho Can Benefit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWomen of menstruating age.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividuals who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequent blood donors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividuals who have undergone gastric bypass surgery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividuals who eat a very high fiber diet, which can inhibit iron absorption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividuals recovering from blood loss, such as injury or surgery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerformance athletes who have any of the above additional risk factors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSigns of Iron Deficiency\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFatigue or weakness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShortness of breath.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePale skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold hands and feet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeeling lightheaded or dizzy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChanges in menstrual cycles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecreased athletic performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChelated Iron:\u003c\/strong\u003e Iron provided in a chelated form for optimal absorption.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReduced GI Side Effects:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reduced GI side effects such as nausea and constipation.*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFerrochel® Chelate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides 25 mg of elemental iron per serving as Ferrochel® chelate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNSF Certified for Sport:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every batch tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of nearly 300 substances banned by many major athletic organizations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Take 1 capsule daily or as recommended by your health-care practitioner.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWarnings\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAllergy:\u003c\/strong\u003e This product is contraindicated in an individual with a history of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePregnancy:\u003c\/strong\u003e If pregnant, consult your health-care practitioner before using this product.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccidental Overdose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under six.
