Bio-Design Hemo Plus
Bio-Design Hemo Plus provides 100% of the Daily Value for Iron, as ferrous fumerate, in a formula of nutrients that support the assimilation and utilization of Iron.
Iron is an essential mineral in human nutrition. Iron deficiency anemia may affect 25% or more of the population, due primarily to increased consumption of processing foods and decreased use of cast-iron cookware. Iron is the main constituent of hemoglobin, necessary for the transport of oxygen from the lungs to cells throughout the body.
Iron is stored in the liver and muscle tissue and promotes resistance to disease, aids in growth, and is necessary for the metabolism of B vitamins. Ferrous fumerate is the anhydrous salt formed by combining ferrous iron with fumaric acid. Organic iron compounds such as ferrous fumerate are non-constipating and do not damage Vitamin E.
Women in their childbearing years require more Iron than men due to their monthly blood loss. Otherwise, the average loss due to excretion per day is about 1.5 mg.
Other groups that may require increased iron intake are pregnant or lactating women, growing children, and endurance athletes. Iron deficiency symptoms can include anemia, increased menses, nosebleeds, headaches, decreased immunity, thinning hair, dry scaling lips, muscle weakness, fatigue, depression, dizziness, weakness, difficulty swallowing, thin nails with edges turned up, intestinal diseases, diarrhea, constipation, and itching.
