PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Ortho Iron™ contains SunActive®, an easily absorbed and highly tolerated iron formula. SunActive® contains ferric pyrophosphate, a type of iron that has been processed to reduce particle size for higher absorption and which is bound to a food-grade emulsifier to prevent clustering. These two factors give it a bioavailability equal to that of pharmaceutical-grade iron prescriptions. Ortho Iron™ also contains several other nutrients that support iron absorption and prevent the oxidative effects associated with iron supplementation. These include Vitamin C, B6, B12, folate, lactoferrin, and copper, all of which are crucial for iron absorption and utilization. Ortho Iron™ is an advanced iron supplement for those with an iron deficiency and is especially helpful for those who have experienced uncomfortable side effects such as constipation or nausea from conventional iron pills.
AOR ADVANTAGE AOR’s Ortho Iron™ improves symptoms of iron-deficiency anemia such as fatigue and weakness, without the gastrointestinal side effects commonly associated with iron supplements.
