Ultimate Iron Support Pack

Optimize your iron levels with the ultimate iron support pack. 

Blood Vitality is an iron-containing formula you can rely upon to safely raise your ferritin levels within 30 days, which is easy to digest without the side effects associated with many irons.*  

However, nutrients such as Daily Flora and Vitamin D3+K2 are helpful in supporting iron uptake. 

It is common for Vitamin D and iron deficiencies to co-exist. Studies have shown a mechanistic interaction between iron and vitamin D metabolism. Research on the association between vitamin D and iron demonstrates a potential role in red cell production and suppression of hepcidin expression.

It is also worth noting that 23% of iron-deficient female athletes are three times more likely to have vitamin D deficiency. Also, vitamin D-deficient women were 2.7 times more likely to have iron deficiency.

Gut microbiota modulation through pro- and prebiotic intake can affect iron absorption, but the type of ingested iron is also essential.

Some bacteria, including Bifidobacterium longum and Lactobacillus acidophilus, prevent intestinal inflammation. It is also shown that the administration of probiotics and prebiotics may increase iron absorption. Daily Flora helps maintain the nutrients needed for a healthy intestinal microecology.* 

Daily Flora provides four researched strains of beneficial bacteria, including the extensively studied HN019® strain of Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium longum, and Lactobacillus plantarum.

These live microorganisms have proven health benefits and well-established safety, and have been tested for epithelial cell adhesion and/or resistance to low pH.* 

Vitamin D3 + K2 Liquid are easy-to-use drops that are great for the whole family as doses can be titrated up and down depending on individual size and age.  Recent studies have shown a fantastic synergy between vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 for bone strength and cardiovascular health.
