Why Chief Nutrition IRON+C?

Unlike many synthetic iron supplements made from isolated iron salts, IRON + C uses freeze-dried, real food ingredients. This helps deliver iron alongside its naturally occurring companion nutrients in a convenient, taste-free capsule format.

To enhance absorption, acerola cherry - naturally high in vitamin C - is included to support the body’s uptake of iron. By pairing haem iron with its natural cofactors, including B vitamins and trace minerals found in whole organs, this blend works in harmony with how nutrients occur in nature.

All natural ingredients in this formula are cleanly sourced from certified organic, grass-fed, regeneratively farmed cattle without added hormones, antibiotics, or glyphosate. Freeze-drying helps preserve nutrients, while encapsulation makes it simple to add to your daily routine. Iron support, as nature intended.

What's the difference between non-heam iron and haem iron

Non-haem iron is found in plant-based foods and is less readily absorbed by the body, while haem iron, from animal sources like beef, has a significantly higher absorption and supports optimal haemoglobin production.  Hemoglobin is a protein found in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen around the body for cellular and metabolic function.  When iron levels are low, it creates a ripple effect – leading to low haemoglobin production, which leads to low oxygen transportation… which leads to tiredness and fatigue. 

Why do we need iron?

• Oxygen transport – Iron is a key component of hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from your lungs to every cell in your body.
  
• Energy production – Iron helps support normal cellular energy metabolism and ATP production, which fuels muscles and brain activity.
  
• Brain function – Adequate iron supports brain function, including focus, memory, and learning.
  
• Immune health – Iron contributes to immune system function, helping your body respond to everyday immune challenges.
  
• Hormone and growth support – Iron is important for thyroid function and overall growth and development, particularly in women, children, and those with higher iron needs.
