PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Ortho Iron™ Vegan is a vegan and lactoferrin-free version of Ortho Iron™, AOR’s award-winning iron formula. It includes synergistic nutrients that are necessary for proper iron absorption and is useful for treating iron deficiency anemia. Ortho Iron™ Vegan is well tolerated and doesn’t tend to cause the side effects common to iron supplements such as nausea or constipation. Ortho Iron™ Vegan provides iron, vitamin B12, and folate and promotes proper red blood cell formation and is therefore effective for the treatment and prevention of both iron deficiency and pernicious anemia. Ortho Iron™ Vegan is formulated with supporting nutrients such as vitamins B6, vitamin C, zinc, and copper, which help improve iron absorption while reducing the risk of side effects
AOR ADVANTAGE Ortho Iron™ Vegan will benefit vegans because they are at a higher risk of anemia, as well as iron and B12 deficiency, simply because their diets do not provide the more absorbable heme form of iron found in meat.
