Ingredients explained
Iron (from certified organic curry [Murraya koenigii] extract)
Iron is a core component of hemoglobin and enzymes involved in energy production, which may support oxygen transport and red blood cell formation.
Caution: Can cause stomach upset or constipation in some people; keep away from children due to risk of accidental overdose.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C enhances non-heme iron absorption by reducing ferric iron to the more absorbable ferrous form and supports antioxidant defenses.
Caution: High doses may cause digestive discomfort in some people; consider taking with food if sensitive.
Vitamin A
Vitamin A supports the maturation and function of immune and epithelial cells and contributes to normal iron metabolism.
Caution: Excess intake may be a concern, especially if combined with other vitamin A sources; avoid exceeding suggested use.
Folate (as 5-MTHF L-methylfolate)
Folate in its active 5-MTHF form provides methyl groups needed for DNA synthesis, which is important for red blood cell formation.
Caution: Certain medications may interact with folate metabolism; consult a healthcare professional if unsure.
Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin acts as a lipid-soluble antioxidant that may help stabilize cell membranes and neutralize free radicals.
Caution: May discolor stools or urine in some users; discontinue if unusual reactions occur.
How they work together
Iron provides the core mineral for hemoglobin, while vitamin C helps improve iron absorption. Folate and vitamin A contribute to normal red blood cell development and function. Astaxanthin adds antioxidant support to help protect cells from oxidative stress.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: If you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medications, or have a medical condition, consult a doctor before use.
Who should be cautious: People with iron overload concerns or a history of sensitivity to topical adhesives may need extra caution. Iron may reduce absorption of thyroid medications, certain antibiotics, and levodopa; separate timing and consult a healthcare provider before combining with these medications.
