About this product:

· What it is: “Heme Iron Polypeptide” sure is a mouthful. But underneath all that, it’s simple- HIP is the form of iron that is found in meat. It is a naturally occurring iron source that helps maintain and support healthy iron levels.

·The difference with Proferrin Clear: Proferrin Clear comes in a gel capsule form that can be broken open so the contents can be poured into food such as applesauce. It has a small ingredient list with only 4 ingredients. It has the same amount of heme iron as Proferrin ES at 10.5 mg.

· High absorption- Proferrin heme iron has 10-23 times better absorption than other forms of iron**. One Proferrin tablet or capsule provides as much absorbable iron as 172 eggs, 23 chicken breasts, or a 12-ounce steak.

· Less is more: No one wants to take a handful of pills each morning. Because of how easily heme iron is absorbed by the body, the serving size is lower than other forms of iron to achieve the same or better results. Our recommended serving size is 1-3 tablets or capsules a day.

· No planning required: Because of its unique absorption pathway, Proferrin can be taken with or without food, coffee, calcium, or Vitamin C, and is not affected by PPIs*. No need to plan your meals around your iron supplement!

· Gentle on the GI: Proferrin has been proven in clinical studies to have fewer side effects such as nausea or constipation***.
