Natural
Vitamin C with Iron
for Anaemia
Taking vitamin C alongside iron-rich foods or supplements to significantly enhance non-haem iron absorption.
How it works
Vitamin C reduces ferric iron to the more absorbable ferrous form and forms a soluble chelate with iron that resists inhibition by phytates and polyphenols.
What to watch for
Take 100-200mg vitamin C at the same time as iron supplement or iron-rich meal. Fruit juice or fresh fruit also works.
