Why Nature's Own?
Nature's Own’s Iron/Molybdenum supplement is in a Food State, which means the nutrients will be presented to your body in the same form as they are in food. It is gentle, non-constipating and bioeffective form of iron.
Food State nutrients have been tested by independent laboratories, who found that they:
• are significantly better absorbed, longer retained and better used than standard chemical supplements;
• do not need to be taken with food, as they contain all the necessary food factors needed for absorption;
• have no known allergic reactions;
• are suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Nature's Own’s Iron supplement contains Molybdenum because it is a vital part of the enzyme responsible for iron utilisation.
