Iron is required for haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in red blood cells, and for other proteins and enzymes. Supplements can address an established shortage, but tiredness does not by itself diagnose iron deficiency. The cause of low iron and the appropriate amount should be assessed rather than guessed.

The pack details above come from the manufacturer. Ingredient research below does not establish the effects of this exact product or independently verify its contents.

The complete declared ingredient amounts

The current table uses a serving of 1 capsule. It declares Vitamin B12 (as Methylcobalamin) 300 mcg; Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxal 5'-Phosphate) 5 mg; Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid) 15 mg; Folate (as L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate from L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolic Acid, Glucosamine Salt) 667 mcg DFE; Iron (as Ferrochel® Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate) 36 mg. These are manufacturer label amounts, not a personal dosing instruction.

The comparison detail that changes the decision

This iron formula contains 36 mg iron with vitamin C, B6, B12 and folate. It differs materially from a single-ingredient iron capsule. The selected product has 60 labelled servings per container. Matching ingredient form and serving matters more than bottle count.

Excipients, cautions and evidence limits

Other listed ingredients: Leucine, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Silicon Dioxide, Hypromellose (derived from cellulose) capsule. Use supplemental iron for an identified need; keep away from children because accidental iron overdose can be fatal. The folate component requires review with methotrexate treatment. No independent batch test or exact-formula clinical outcome was verified in this review. Current Indian stock and delivered price remain unverified.

02 / BENEFITS, IN PERSPECTIVE

Where might it be useful?

01

Oxygen transport

Adequate iron supports haemoglobin and normal oxygen delivery.

02

Deficiency correction

Clinically appropriate iron replacement can help restore iron stores when deficiency has been established.

THE EVIDENCE LENS

What the research can — and cannot — tell us

Benefits depend strongly on baseline status and the cause of deficiency. A chelated form or a gentle label does not mean a product is suitable for everyone. Compare elemental iron rather than compound weight and consider the intended treatment and monitoring plan.

03 / A CLOSER LOOK

What deserves your attention?

Use supplemental iron for an identified need; keep away from children because accidental iron overdose can be fatal. The folate component requires review with methotrexate treatment.

Suitability comes before strength

Iron overdose can be dangerous, particularly for children; keep bottles inaccessible. Iron may cause constipation or nausea and can interact with medicines. Avoid unassessed use with iron-overload conditions.

Dietary details for this product

Dietary status not confirmed The reviewed current label does not explicitly establish vegan or vegetarian status for the complete formula. A cellulose capsule or dairy-free statement alone is not a whole-formula declaration.

A dietary label and an allergy assessment answer different questions. Check every ingredient, the capsule or softgel materials and the allergen statement on the pack you receive. If you take medicines, have a health condition, are pregnant or are choosing for a child, discuss the full formula with a qualified clinician.
