Nelsons Spatone Iron Supplement - (28 days supply)

The iron in Spatone is highly absorbable

It is not actually how much iron we consume that matters but the amount of iron that our body is able to absorb. It has been shown that the absorption of iron from Spatone is up to 40%. That is much higher than the absorption of iron from food sources (5 - 20%) or conventional iron supplements (3 - 10%). Spatone is thus a highly effective source of iron which can be consumed to help prevent iron deficiency.

Reduced scope of side-effects

Since the iron in Spatone is easily assimilated in the body, you only need to take small quantities to get your entire average absorbed daily requirement of iron. This is why Spatone does not result in the common side effects often associated with conventional iron supplements such as constipation, stomach irritation and headaches. Each sachet of Spatone only contains 5mg of elemental iron but with an absorption rate of 40% you will get all the extra iron your body needs without having to excrete much iron.

Spatone is packed into convenient sachets which can either be taken as they are or added to fruit juice - making Spatone the most convenient liquid iron supplement available. One sachet of Spatone provides you with your recommended daily allowance of iron. During pregnancy you can safely take up to two sachets a day to keep your iron levels topped up.
