Iron-C+ Gummy Natural Raspberry Flavor
Pure Encapsulations
Overview
This gummy supplement combines iron with several essential vitamins and a berry blend. Sunactive Iron offers good bioavailability for addressing iron deficiencies. While the vitamins and berry blend provide some additional support, some of the levels are very low, such as Vitamin C doses for adults. The high amount of sugar and the high dose of B6, make this a far from ideal formulation.
The Good
Contains Sunactive Iron, a highly bioavailable form of iron.
Includes vitamin C, which aids in iron absorption.
Provides vitamin B6 and B12, which are important for energy metabolism and red blood cell function, although one is very high, but the other is at a good level.
The Bad
High sugar content per serving due to the added sucrose and sugar alcohols.
Potential for mild gastrointestinal side effects in sensitive individuals due to sugar alcohols.
Risk of accidental iron overdose in children if not stored safely; requires careful monitoring.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals with iron deficiency, those seeking an easy-to-take iron supplement, people with difficulty swallowing pills
Skip If: You have hemochromatosis or other iron overload disorders; consult a doctor if pregnant or breastfeeding.
