Ortho Iron contains SunActive®, a superior form of iron that has been shown to be better absorbed and tolerated than other iron products on the market. SunActive® contains ferric pyrophosphate, a type of iron that has been treated to reduce particle size for better absorption and is bound to a food grade emulsifier to prevent clumping. These two factors give it a bioavailability equal to that of pharmaceutical grade iron. Ortho Iron also contains several other nutrients that promote iron absorption and prevent the oxidative effects associated with iron supplementation. These include vitamins C, B6, B12, folate, lactoferrin and copper, all of which are essential for iron absorption and utilization.
Ortho Iron is a complete formula for the treatment of anemia, which can be caused not only by iron deficiency, but also by vitamin B12 or folate deficiencies. Iron deficiency, which can lead to anemia, is the most common nutritional disorder in the world; approximately 25% of the world's population is iron deficient. However, even iron deficiency conditions that do not result in anemia can have adverse effects on human health, including compromised cognitive function, general weakness and fatigue, and a weakened immune system.
Pregnant and menstruating women are often at risk for iron deficiency, as are teenagers, endurance athletes, and anyone with a growth or fatigue condition or who has experienced blood loss. Ortho Iron is the most advanced iron supplement for iron deficient individuals and is especially helpful for those who have experienced unpleasant side effects such as constipation or nausea caused by conventional iron pills.
AOR Ortho Iron improves iron deficiency anemia symptoms such as fatigue and weakness, without the gastrointestinal side effects usually associated with iron supplements.
