THERE ARE SO MANY IRON PRODUCTS TO CHOOSE FROM; WHY IS ATHLETE'S IRON THE BEST FOR TRIATHLETES, ULTRA RUNNERS AND OR VEGANS?

Athlete’s Iron Elevates Iron levels Safely quickly
Athlete's Iron is formulated with a patented amino acid Iron Chelate; as Ferrochel™.
Ferrochel™ studies have increased Iron levels over 6x better and faster than conventional inorganic(non chelated) Iron forms.
The below study was conducted at Ohio State using Ferrochel™ Iron. The quick and maximized uptake of mineral chelates and whole food nutrients elevated performance in a short time frame.
RESULTS:
FASTER 5K
The patented iron chelate in Athlete’s Iron™ doesn’t require any additional metabolic conversion, or Vitamin C, to be absorbed.
The inorganic iron forms; oxide, fumerate, sulfate, require a few internal process to make the iron recognized by the body, absorbed and then made bioavailable.
Internal Chronological Process
1.) Digestion: Most iron is within food and requires to be broken down into a usable nutrient this occurs in stomach acids
2.) Ionization: When a food based, or non chelated mineral enters the digestive track and stomach the digestive juices go to work and separates the mineral into its most basic form. At this point the mineral has an electrical charge.
3.) Chelation: finding an amino acid to ‘chelate/attach’ too, for active transport
4.) Absorption: Active or passive transport uptake via luminal wals
5.) Bioavailable: Utilization for Biological Chemical Reactions
The above chemical reaction occurs prior to the body being able to efficiently to be absorbed more efficiently and effectively. If the Iron is not chelated the Iron may compete with Calcium receptors, which interfere with Iron absorption.
Athlete's Iron also contain Prebiotics, to enhance the gut health.
