Promotes healthy ferritin, hemoglobin and red blood cell function

*Iron is an  important component of hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that  delivers oxygen to tissues throughout the  body. It is also a part of myoglobin, a protein that helps  muscle cells store oxygen, and ferritin, the body's main iron  storage  protein found in the intestines, liver and spleen. Iron bound  to ferritin is readily mobilized to meet the body's demands.  Ferrochel® brand iron bis-glycinate was developed using unique  patented chemistry, allowing it to be absorbed rapidly from the  lumen of the intestines into mucosal cells and then released  for transport throughout the body. The intestinal mucosal tissue  tightly controls the release of Ferrochel, supporting the safety  profile of this iron amino acid chelate. In a double blind, randomized,  placebo-controlled trial, iron supplementation supported healthy  ferritin levels and enhanced energy and well-being in fe
