Iron+: Gentle and Effective Iron Support for a Healthy Glow

Iron: The Oxygen Transporter

Iron is an essential nutrient in the human body, often called the “oxygen transporter.” As the core component of hemoglobin, it enables oxygen to travel from the lungs to tissues and organs, supporting energy production and cellular function.

When iron intake is insufficient, hemoglobin synthesis declines, creating a state of “chronic oxygen deficit.” This can manifest as fatigue, dizziness, pale skin, poor concentration, lowered immunity, and mood disturbances.

 

Why Women Are More Susceptible

Women, especially those of reproductive age, are more vulnerable to iron deficiency. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 30% of women worldwide experience inadequate iron intake or depleted reserves.

Periods of adolescence, menstruation, pregnancy, and lactation increase the body’s demand for iron. Even without diagnosed anemia, long-term low reserves can gradually reduce energy, resilience, and overall vitality.

 

The Real Challenge: Absorption

Although many foods contain iron, bioavailability varies significantly depending on the form and context.

  • Non-heme iron (from plants): Absorption rate is only 2%–10% and can be inhibited by compounds such as oxalates and phytates.
  • Iron-rich foods like dates, black sesame, and spinach provide limited iron, often in less absorbable forms.
  • Beverages like coffee, tea, and milk, when consumed with meals, can substantially reduce absorption.
  • Conventional iron supplements may list high iron content but are often poorly absorbed, with side effects such as nausea, constipation, and stomach discomfort. Unabsorbed free iron ions may also feed harmful gut bacteria, potentially impacting intestinal health.

 

Iron+: A Smarter Complex With Four Bioavailable Forms

BIGVITA Iron+ is designed to overcome these absorption challenges. It combines four complementary iron sources, each with unique strengths:

  • Lipofer® Iron Pyrophosphate – Microencapsulated for solubility and stability, disperses easily in the digestive tract, and avoids premature interaction with other nutrients.
  • Ferrous Gluconate – A highly soluble organic iron salt that readily releases ferrous ions, supporting hemoglobin synthesis and red blood cell formation.
  • Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate – Bound to the amino acid glycine, minimizing interference from dietary inhibitors and ensuring efficient absorption. Gentle on sensitive stomachs and effective even with reduced gastric acid.
  • Heme Iron – Structurally similar to the iron in human hemoglobin, absorbed directly by the intestinal lining without conversion. Highly efficient for replenishing stores and restoring hemoglobin levels.

Together, these forms maximize absorption, reduce gastrointestinal side effects, and support a wide range of individual needs.

 

Designed for Women: Gentle Liquid Drop Format

Unlike conventional iron tablets, which can be unpalatable and irritating to the stomach, BIGVITA Iron+ comes in a light, pleasant liquid drop form:

  • Can be taken directly or mixed with water for faster absorption.
  • Easy to use daily—no pills to swallow.
  • Naturally flavored with cranberry extract, improving taste while supporting urinary tract and gut health, which are both linked to iron metabolism and absorption.

 

The Takeaway

Whether you follow a vegetarian diet, frequently drink coffee or tea, experience heavy periods, or struggle with digestive absorption, BIGVITA Iron+ offers a gentle, effective, and easy-to-take solution. By combining four highly bioavailable iron sources in a convenient liquid format, it helps restore energy, resilience, and a naturally healthy glow.
