Iron contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, to normal oxygen transport in the body, to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to the normal function of the immune system and to normal cognitive function. Vitamin C increases iron absorption, and folate and vitamin B12 contribute to normal red blood cell and blood formation.

NOW Foods recommends 1 tablet per day with a meal. Take it apart from dairy products, coffee, tea and antacids, which reduce iron absorption.
