Liposomal Iron 20mg by Osavi
This supplement from Osavi delivers iron in a liposomal form, as ferrobisglycinate. Each capsule contains 20 mg of iron, which is 143% of the reference intake. The iron is encapsulated in phospholipids from sunflower lecithin. With 120 capsules and one capsule per day, it will last you four months.
What liposomal iron is exactly
Liposomes are small spheres of phospholipids, the same building blocks as your cell membranes. With liposomal iron, the ferrobisglycinate is encapsulated in these spheres. That is the difference with classic iron salts such as ferrous sulfate, which are not encapsulated. Iron contributes to normal oxygen transport in the body and to the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin.
Ferrobisglycinate versus other forms of iron
There are many forms of iron on the market. Ferrous sulfate is the classic iron salt that you find in many regular supplements. Ferrobisglycinate is a chelate form: the iron is bound to two glycine molecules. Osavi chooses this bound form in a liposomal carrier. Iron contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Iron also plays a role in the cell division process.
Iron from food
Food sources of iron are red meat, liver, dark chocolate, and whole grains. Plant-based sources such as legumes and spinach also provide iron. Iron contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to normal cognitive function. If you take one capsule per day after a meal, you have a simple daily routine. However, avoid taking it at the same time as coffee, tea, or dairy.
Composition and capsule
The capsule itself is plant-based, made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and free from gluten, lactose, soy, and GMOs. This makes this iron suitable for a vegan diet. If you are unsure whether you need to supplement iron, for example because you are pregnant or taking medication, consult your GP first.
In short: liposomal iron from Osavi as ferrobisglycinate, 20 mg per capsule in a phospholipid carrier. A clear, simple formula with 120 capsules per bottle. This way, you know exactly what you are getting: 20 mg of iron per day, and nothing else unnecessary.
