The iron in BioFe® micronized and microencapsulated iron pyrophosphate.

Micronization is a process that changes the surface area of the iron increasing the iron’s absorbability. Micronizing also makes it completely dispersible in liquids.

Microencapsulation is a process where the iron is wrapped in a protective coating, allowing the iron to travel intact past the stomach and into the small intestine where iron is absorbed by the body. This coating eliminates the common side effects of other types of iron, such as constipation, upset stomach, stained gray teeth, and metallic taste. It also ensures that the iron tastes great.

Other forms of iron, like iron salts, cause digestive issues because not all the iron is absorbed. The unabsorbed iron continues through the digestive tract, where it can cause side effects such as constipation, stomach upset, and abdominal discomfort. The micronized and microencapsulated iron in BioFe® is designed to optimize iron delivery to the small intestine where it needs to go and has superior absorption while eliminating digestive side effects.

Consistency is one of the most important factors when taking an iron supplement. The most common reason people stop taking iron supplements is because they taste awful and are difficult to take. That's why BioFe® is formulated with a delicious taste and no added sugar.

BioFe® iron is available in multiple delivery methods for dosage flexibility and to meet preferences for all age groups.
