How Sucrosomial Iron Works
- Sucrosomial iron uses iron pyrophosphate protected by phospholipid and sucrose-esters to avoid gut oxidation and inflammation.
- The protected form targets transferrin and preserves the microbiome during GI transit.
Follow Tiered Dosing For Repletion
- Start with one capsule daily (30 mg sucrosomial iron) for routine repletion and increase under medical supervision up to 4 capsules if severe anemia.
- This product claims high bioavailability so dosing can be lower and better tolerated than iron salts.
Much Faster Correction With Sucrosomial Iron
- Clinical data showed sucrosomial iron corrected anemia in about six weeks versus six months for other oral irons at equal elemental iron.
- Faster hemoglobin response reflects much higher effective absorption and delivery to bone marrow.
