Olimp Labs Chela-Ferr® MED+

The latest generation, hypoallergenic iron amino acid chelate – FERROCHEL™ in an increased dose of 30 mg – is an effective and safe source of iron for maintaining normal iron levels and preventing iron deficiency in women during pregnancy, as well as in people with severe iron deficiency.

The unique organic iron-amino acid compound FERROCHEL™ is a patented form of non-heme iron – Fe(II) in the form of an amino acid chelate, which has the same good bioactivity and tolerability as heme iron:

• very high bioactivity – significantly better iron absorption and controlled use throughout the body compared to other inorganic iron compounds, it is absorbed unchanged in intestinal mucosal cells;
• high bio-efficacy – even at low doses – rapidly increases plasma hemoglobin and ferritin levels, as well as total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), rapidly increases iron reserves in the body of people with iron deficiency without signs of iron overdose;
• physiologically controlled absorption of iron – the absorption of iron from iron chelate in the body is physiologically regulated depending on the level of iron in the body, which is inversely proportional to the level of ferritin in the blood plasma, thus minimal possibility of iron overdose;
• good tolerability – does not cause gastrointestinal irritation, unpleasant side effects provided by the special chemical structure of iron chelate (Jeppsen, 2001; Allen, 2002);
• hypoallergenic, safe to use – does not cause allergic reactions (GRAS certificate, U.S. Patent No. 7,838,042)
• no interaction with food or other vitamins and minerals – can be taken at any time and with other vitamins / minerals;
• Kosher (Parve-Kosher) and GMO-free certificates, vegan and vegetarian friendly, recommended to use when opening the capsule and pouring out its contents.

Adequate iron level during pregnancy plays an important role in the health of women and the unborn baby, because iron promotes the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin and ensures the normal transport of oxygen in the body. In addition, iron ensures the normal functioning of the immune system and helps reduce fatigue and fatigue, ensuring a normal energy metabolism.
