Douglas Labs  Timed Release Iron  90 Tabs


DESCRIPTION Timed Release Iron tablets, supplied by Douglas Laboratories®, are specially designed to provide 54 mg of carbonyl iron (Ferronyl®) per serving for a 6 to 8 hour period. Carbonyl iron is easily absorbed and has a low toxicity.

FUNCTIONS Iron is one of the most abundant metals in the universe. It is also one of the most useful in biochemical functions. In the human body, iron is present in all cells and has several vital functions -- as a carrier of oxygen to the tissues from the lungs in the form of hemoglobin, as a facilitator of oxygen use and storage in the muscles as myoglobin, as a transport medium for electrons within the cells in the form of cytochromes, and as an integral part of enzyme reactions in various tissues. Adequate iron stores support energy production, hormones, and neurological health.† Low iron levels in the blood are the most common and most prevalent mineral deficiency in the world. A diminished supply of iron can result in a decreased concentration of red blood cells and a diminished delivery of oxygen to tissues which may result in irritability, inability to concentrate, and low immune function. Common causes of low iron include gastrointestinal malabsorption, pregnancy or menstruation, inadequate iron intake from the diet mostly seen in vegetarians, consumption of foods that inhibit iron absorption, and intense exercise.

INDICATIONS Timed Release Iron tablets may be a useful dietary supplement for individuals wishing to supplement their diet with iron.

SUGGESTED USE Adults take 2 tablets daily with meals or as directed by health care practitioner.
