Iron is a vital element for human health, which must be ingested through our diet and then absorbed by the gastrointestinal system. Iron-deficiency is a common problem that is often manged with high-dose supplementation. Unfortunately, this may disturb the microbiota, causing side effects such as diarrhea, abdominal pain and constipation. Probi FerroSorb® is a clinically proven probiotic iron-absorption concept, supporting long-term iron status. It is based on Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v (LP299V®), combined with a carefully balanced dose of iron. Unlike iron-only supplements, Probi FerroSorb increases uptake, reducing the quantity of iron needed. Balanced iron uptake and a healthy microbiota, without gastrointestinal discomfort. Probi FerroSorb is ideal for capsules, tablets, and stick-packs, as well as for functional foods such as beverages and powder products.
