The Phospholipidic IRON Lipofer, is a supplement based on LIPOFER, a compound of ferric pyrophosphate that exploits the phospholipid vehicle technology, i.e. it is incorporated within a phospholipid membrane, a sort of protective "shell", and, compared to other oral formulations, allows for better gastrointestinal absorption with a higher bioavailability of the precious mineral with a lower incidence of side effects. Under normal conditions generally only 15-20% of the iron administered orally is absorbed, due to an inherent limit in the availability of specific carriers at the duodenal level, so it is useless (and almost even harmful) to increase the intake doses, since once the transport capacity of the carriers is saturated, only an increase in side effects would be obtained. Our body needs very little of this essential mineral element, but that "small portion" must become bioavailable.

Its widespread fame in recent years in the medical field stems precisely from the fact that thanks to sophisticated technology, the phospholipidic iron passes the gastric environment unscathed and is absorbed at the level of the entire intestine (not only at the duodenal level). In this way it will arrive intact "at its destination" without disturbing the gastrointestinal mucous membranes. Scientific literature has shown that, thanks to phospholipid technology, iron absorption is 3.5 times higher than free iron pyrophosphate, 2.7 times higher than iron sulphate and 4.1 times higher than iron gluconate. In addition, the association with folic acid makes the use of iron conveyed at the cellular level optimal, in addition to vitamin C and vitamin B12, which further promotes better bioavailability.

Phospholipidic IRON Lipofer is a latest generation iron food supplement, which makes its integration effective as well as not bringing any undesirable effect frequent in its supplementation, aimed at all people in whom there is a real iron deficiency state, such as in cases of athlete's anemia and non-pathological iron deficiency anemia.
