Thompson's Organic Iron
Thompson’s Organic Iron contains high potency Iron in the form of Ferrous Fumarate. Ferrous Fumarate is well absorbed by the body and is considered to be the best form of supplemental Iron available. Ferrous Fumarate is less constipating than other forms of Iron and does not act as a Vitamin E antagonist.
Thompson’s Organic Iron is further enhanced through the addition of Vitamin C and Folic Acid to the formulation. Bioavailability is further improved by the inclusion of the Iron-rich super-foods Pumpkin Seed to complete the formulation.
Thompson’s Organic Iron - Indications for Use:
-
Adolescent females are commonly at greatest risk of Iron deficiency due to increased Iron losses at menstruation and poor dietary habits.
-
Pregnancy also places great demands on Iron stores.
-
Eating a strictly vegetarian diet or doing frequent aerobic exercise can further increase the likelihood of low Iron stores in the body.
-
Symptoms such as fatigue, frequent infections, poor stamina, reduced athletic performance and learning difficulties in children may be signs of Iron deficiency.
-
Anaemia can produce such symptoms as shortness of breath, dizziness, coldness, weakness, heart palpitations, depression, pale skin and fainting and can be easily reversed through supplementation with Organic Iron Complete.
Iron deficiency can lead to a reduction in maximal work capacity by impairing concentration and reducing energy levels. It can decrease immunity and increase susceptibility to infectious disease. Iron deficiency can also impair body-temperature regulation.

More about Iron
Iron is a mineral that is crucial to both our physical and mental wellbeing. Iron is found in every cell of the body. It forms a vital part of haemoglobin, the component of blood that transports oxygen around the body, supplying muscles for physical activity. Iron is also responsible for the excretion of carbon dioxide and for protecting the body against infection.
Iron deficiency is among the most common nutritional deficiencies in the world. On assessing Iron status and dietary Iron intakes, up to 70% of Australasian women between the age of 25 and 55 years were found not to receive the recommended daily intake of Iron, with up to 10% falling into the clinically-deficient category, which results in anaemia.
