Product Information
Ortho Iron™ is a complete formula that helps the body maintain healthy iron levels to promote healthy red blood cell formation. With a combination of high-quality ingredients, such as SunActive® iron, this supplement provides the necessary support for those who require more than what their diet alone provides in an easy-to-absorb formula.
Pregnant and menstruating women are often at risk of iron deficiency, as are adolescents, endurance athletes, and anyone who has experienced blood loss. Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional disorder in the world, with approximately 25% of the planet’s population suffering. Iron-deficiency states may have detrimental effects on health, including compromised cognitive function, overall weakness and fatigue, and a weakening of the immune system.
Ortho Iron™ includes supporting nutrients such as vitamins C, B6 and B12, folic acid, and copper to enhance iron absorption, to further assist with red blood cell formation, and to prevent the oxidative effect sometimes associated with iron supplementation.
AOR Advantage
Ortho Iron™ is the most comprehensive formula of iron supplementation available, in doses proven by clinical research to be effective.
