Effective supply of iron and vitamin C Iron is an essential trace element involved in numerous bodily processes. Among other things, it contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin, normal oxygen transport and energy metabolism, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Since the body cannot produce iron itself, it must be obtained through food. In certain situations and phases of life, there may be an increased need for iron. If this need cannot be adequately met through a balanced diet, taking a dietary supplement can be a sensible option. SiderAL® Forte was specifically developed for use during pregnancy. This dietary supplement contains 30 mg of iron to reliably cover the increased need from the second trimester onward. The product is very well tolerated. Thanks to the special patented sucrosomal® formulation, the iron is absorbed directly by the intestine, thus preventing irritation of the gastrointestinal tract. The vitamin C it contains also helps protect cells from oxidative stress.
