About the ingredients
Iron
Iron is an essential trace mineral the body uses to make haemoglobin in red blood cells, which carry oxygen, and for energy production in every cell. UK NHS reference intakes are 8.7 mg/day for men, 14.8 mg/day for menstruating women, and 8.7 mg/day for women after the menopause. Read more in the encyclopaedia
Vitamin C
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a water-soluble vitamin the body uses for collagen synthesis, immune function, antioxidant protection of cells, and to help absorb iron from plant foods. UK NHS reference intake is 40 mg/day for adults. Most UK adults meeting the eat-five-a-day pattern cover this from food; supplementation is sensible for those who do not, and during specific situations like recovery or pregnancy.
