Iron Bisglycinate 20mg with vitamin C has been expertly formulated to support iron levels without the negative side effects associated with standard iron supplements, which are also poorly absorbed. Compounds in the diet including fibre, polyphenols and phytates can bind to iron and inhibit its absorption. To overcome this, we use the gentle chelated bisglycinate form which has higher bioavailability – up to 90% more than other forms. Iron bisglycinate is absorbed approximately 4x better than ferrous sulphate and sustains iron levels for longer. Targeted release technology delivers iron directly to the site of maximum absorption, the duodenum in the small intestines. We add co-factor vitamin C to enhance absorption by binding iron to transferrin, a protein that delivers iron to cells where it is needed.

This product is not recommended for men, women post-menopause or young women pre-menstruation without prior iron testing.

High absorption iron bisglycinate

Standard iron supplements are poorly absorbed, and compounds in the diet including fibre, polyphenols and phytates can bind to iron and inhibit its absorption. To overcome this, we use the chelated bisglycinate form of iron which has higher bioavailability (up to 90%) than other forms. Iron bisglycinate is absorbed up to 4x better than ferrous sulphate and sustains iron levels for longer. We also add cofactor vitamin C to enhance absorption by binding iron to transferrin, a protein that delivers iron to cells.

Gentle on the stomach

Standard iron supplements are often associated with unpleasant side effects, including nausea and constipation. We use the well tolerated chelated iron bisglycinate form which binds iron to glycine, preventing irritation of gut tissue and minimising the unpleasant side effects of iron supplements. Gastrointestinal upset is also more likely to occur when supplementing high dose iron, therefore we provide a meaningful 20mg dose to support iron status, without overloading the body.

Targeted release in the small intestine

Iron absorption occurs in the duodenum, a section of the small intestine immediately after the stomach. Iron supplements are often provided with slow release technology but may not dissolve in time for absorption to occur in the duodenum. Any unabsorbed iron can lead to the production of free radicals and reactive oxygen species. Our iron formulation uses targeted release technology to deliver iron directly to the duodenum for maximum absorption, and preventing irritation in the gut.

Energy production

Many people experience fatigue, reduced energy or shortness of breath when iron stores are low. Iron contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, by supporting the pathways for energy metabolism. Iron also contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, to help transport oxygen around the body.

Brain function

Common symptoms of iron insufficiency include poor concentration, brain fog and memory loss. Both iron and vitamin C have key roles in supporting brain function, supporting the process of cell division and contributing to the normal functioning of the nervous system. Iron contributes to normal cognitive function and vitamin C contributes to normal psychological function.

Immune health

Poor levels of iron and vitamin C may impact immune health. As well as increasing iron absorption, vitamin C also works synergistically with iron to support the normal function of the immune system. Vitamin C also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, therefore supplementation is ideal for those who are physically active and may benefit from additional support.

Energy & Sleep

I'm holding my breath hoping the way I feel continues. Since early 2020 after contracting covid I have been unable to rebuild/increase my energy level. General fatigue and quick muscle burn when I try to push myself. It seemed like no matter how hard I tried or how healthy I ate I could not get my energy levels back to where they once were. I attributed much of this to aging, 66, even though I have always been fairly active and try to eat as healthy as possible. There are new studies linking covid and iron levels or should I say the body absorbing iron the way it should. I started taking these iron supplements about 10 days ago. I began with 2 a day one in the morning and one at night. After 4 days I dropped to one a day in the morning. My sleep pattern changed dramatically by the second night. Wow! I haven't felt like that in I don't know how long. I actually slept through the night. Same thing the 3rd night and since. I looked up sleep and iron deficiency and to my surprise it can cause sleeplessness. Who knew? I also have more energy throughout the day and haven't felt the need to take a single nap which had become at least an every other day event. Getting a good nights sleep I'm sure is helping. I also feel better mentally, maybe because I'm sleeping well and able to do a few more things making me feel productive and not being fatigued. I experienced being anemic years ago when I was pregnant with my first child and the fatigue is similar but different. I did recognize the symptoms but when I tried taking iron supplements on occasion over the last 4 years it seemed to help sometimes and sometimes not, which was confusing. If absorption is my problem maybe it explains whats been happening to me and why these supplements are helping. The study also said keeping a decent amount of animal protein in your diet helps with iron absorption. I will continue taking these once a day and if I feel I have anything to add I will revise my review.

Work great

I got these for my sister who recently had a gastric bypass surgery. One of the side effects was iron deficiency and anemia. These pills have restored her iron and increase her energy levels. Pills are small and really easy to digest. They do not upset her stomach. She was previously using a different brand but those were making her nauseous and feeling constipated. She hasn't had any issues with these. Excellent price for 6 months supply. Recommended

Easy to absorb type of iron

Nice small tablets. Work well for my daughter who needs to supplement with iron daily. Lab work comes back good.

Iron with vitamin C

Iron and vitamin C supplement with targeted release.Easy to swallow with no bad taste or side effects.Excellent for energy and immune system health.180 tablets which works out as a 6 month supply.Gave to my daughter for her immune system health and she says they are great so good stuff.Highly recommend. Thank you

Iron supplements with Vitamin C

I recently was diagnosed with anemia due to iron deficiency. I am currently in the process of trying to adjust my diet and use supplements like this to get my levels where they should be.These are larger tablets to swallow, I guess due to the vitamin C. I like that this has vitamin C to help the body absorb the iron. I am trying to figure out what works for me and having to remember to pair my supplement with an orange just makes things more complicated.I have no complaints about these iron supplements.

I bought these as I had been taking iron supplements by another brand and these ones are of a far

I bought these as I had been taking iron supplements by another brand and these ones are of a far higher quality and strength. I am recovering from burnout so I am hopeful that these along with other Igennus products will assist me in my recovery.

i’m feeling better already

i’m feeling better already. I never knew there was so many different types of iron and I researched and this was the iron that I should be taking. I would highly recommend trying this if you’re anaemic and tablets are not working from the doctor.

Great supplement

Great iron supplement! Easy to take, gentle on the stomach, and I noticed an improvement in my energy levels after a few weeks. I also like that it includes vitamin C for better absorption. Highly recommended.

Iron supplements

Very happy with these iron tablets! Easy to swallow, no aftertaste, and a generous six-month supply. Great value and a simple way to stay on top of my iron intake. Highly recommend!

Iron Supplement

Very happy with my iron supplements which was recommended by my naturopath.
Good company to deal with👍🏼

So far so good

Have been on them for two weeks. Had low ferratin and already feeling much much better. Energy levels better and mood. Pretty easy going on the tummy but I am not affected that easily by constipation and most iron will bung u up a bit I think. But these aren't bad at all. Would reccomend.

Super iron supplement

I have been taking this iron supplement for more than 6 months now and my lab tests now show normal iron levels. I would definitely recommend this product.

Really helps my energy level

I have been using this for quite awhile now and won't go without them now. My blood levels have come up and I feel so much better using them. There is no stomach upset and no constipation like I get with other brands. I use several of their products and really trust this company. Plus super customer service!

Feeling so much better!

I started on these iron pills almost 3 weeks ago and am feeling a lot better. My energy is starting to come back and honestly you can almost see it in my skin and face...life 'vitality' is coming back! The pills are better taken with orange juice and I would recommend taking them after you eat.

Gentle and effective

i started with taking just one a day, and gradually have increased, with no ill effects at all. And better still my iron blood count that requires checking on a bi monthly basis is going up!

The best

That’s the best iron supplement which I ever take.

Excellent!

Started taking these after a recent blood test highlighted an iron deficiency. Feel much better since I started taking these. Good price and automatic delivery as part of the subscription is super easy!

Gentle on Stomach

Easy to swallow and gentle on stomach. Was looking for something for long term use and these are it.

Gentle on system and easy to swallow

Small tablet that is very easy to swallow, about same size as the super B complex tablets if you have those. I find this ferrous bisglycinate form is very gentle. I had really bad side effects with a cheap prescribed sulfate form of iron tablet, it wreaked havoc on my system after only a few days, but I’ve been taking theses igennus ones for over 2 years now and all fine. I take one every other day and annual blood test/iron panels show my iron/ferritin maintained at much more optimal levels now.

No stomach ache!

Super gentle and perfect for long term use!

Not capsules

Maybe I did not read the description well enough. But these are pills. WillBe looking for capsules in the future.

Great iron supplement

I’ve found it hard to find an iron supplement that I can take, this one i’ve had some very limited side effects from and the benefits outweigh that. I’d highly recommend!

Great product at a reasonable price with speedy delivery! Thank you!
