WHAT IS THE BEST IRON SUPPLEMENT FOR ATHLETES

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:

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.
