Iron is a critical part of overall health. It helps transport oxygen throughout the body (as a core component of haemoglobin), supports cognitive development and function, strengthens the immune system and more.
Getting enough iron is important; yet, more than 10% of the population cannot do so through their natural diets.
SYNEVIT created FERROFECT as a way to optimise iron uptake and ensure the body receives enough of this critical nutrient for healthy function.
Iron is indispensable for multiple bodily processes, serving as a key component in numerous proteins and enzymes that support various physiological processes.
However, the body cannot produce it on its own, meaning humans must obtain it from their diets.
Even then, not all forms of iron are easy to absorb. That's why SYNEVIT's formula uses chelated iron — a mineral bound to an organic or amino acid, which improves absorption and bioavailability.
In addition to the iron itself, FERROFECT includes key ingredients, such as vitamin B6 and folate, which help to maintain metabolic health, including blood formation (a key element of iron's metabolism and function in the body).
Vitamins C and B12, along with folate, further enhance absorption, whereas zinc and copper assist with iron metabolism and incorporation into haemoglobin.
Timing matters, too. SYNEVIT's enteric-coated slow-release tablets allow for gradual uptake, minimising gastrointestinal discomfort while maximising bioavailability.
"We pride ourselves on creating products that feature technology in synergy with nature," said SYNEVIT CEO George Cvetkovski.
"FERROFECT is an example of that commitment in action. We have worked with our in-house team of medical professionals to source the cleanest, most bioavailable iron, combined it with other nutraceutical ingredients, and then slowed down its release to give the digestive system the best chance at absorption."
"This ensures that everybody has the best chance of getting enough of this critical piece of a nutrient-rich, healthy lifestyle."
