Iron Phospholipid Lipofer is a food supplement that provides 30 mg per daily dose of iron brand LIPOFER microcapsules. Iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin* and to the normal transport of oxygen in the body*. The product is completed with the addition of vitamin C which increases iron absorption. Hemoglobin is a protein that circulates in the blood, whose action is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the various tissues of the body, as well as being a fundamental component of red blood cells. Low presence of hemoglobin means less oxygen supply to the tissues, with consequent feeling of tiredness and weakness, since oxygen is an indispensable element for the production of energy. It is likely that those with hemoglobin deficiency often also have reduced myoglobin, a protein specifically responsible for transporting oxygen to the muscles, and including the heart, further promoting the feeling of tiredness and breathlessness. Poor oxygenation leads to a peripheral vasoconstriction which reduces the blood supply to the limbs (hands and feet in particular), in order to guarantee a greater quantity of oxygen to the vital organs. That is why the anemic suffers more from the cold.
Hemoglobin is also responsible for the bright red color of blood and tissues in general: if the blood levels of hemoglobin are low, the skin may tend to appear more whitish. Research has fielded the possibility of having supplements based on iron conveyed in phospholipids, such as our Iron Phospholipid, which allow for more effective absorption of this precious element and which guarantees excellent bioavailability. We recall that the absorption of ionic iron occurs mainly at the duodenal level and is mediated by specific carriers. Under normal conditions, only 15-20% of the administered iron is absorbed, and even dietary iron has a rather low bioavailability. The particular incorporation technology in natural phospholipids makes the iron highly bioavailable, well tolerated and rapidly absorbed. The presence of the phospholipid envelope protects the iron from contact with the gastric mucosa, avoiding the pro-oxidant effect of free iron. The phospholipidic protection allows the precious microelement to pass the gastric environment unscathed,to be absorbed directly at the level of the entire small intestine and not just the duodenal. The delivery using phospholipid technology corresponds, in our body, to the transport of various substances by the chylomicrons, which are the lipoproteins that represent the form of transport of dietary fats from the intestine to the various tissues.
The orally ingested Iron Phospholipid which is found in the intestinal lumen, is absorbed directly by the M cells (and not by the enterocytes), which originate from the lymphatic system and which are found throughout the small intestine. Subsequently the liposome will be incorporated by endocytosis by the macrophages and through the lymphatic stream it reaches, in an integral way, the hepatocytes. Inside the hepatocytes, the phospholipid system will be dismantled by enzymes thus making LIPOFER™ iron available to the body, guaranteeing an absorption and bioavailability of iron phospholipid superior to other iron salts commonly used and on the market for many years. Yamamoto® Research Iron Phospholipid is formulated with microencapsulated iron pyrophosphate in phospholipid form (LIPOFER) with the addition of Vitamin C to further promote the absorption and bioavailability of the mineral, thus making its integration more effective. How to use: take 1 capsule once a day with water. WARNINGS: Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. The supplements are not intended as a substitute for a varied diet. A varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are important. Keep out of the reach of children under three years of age. Do not take during pregnancy.
