Why does Bifera contain two different forms of iron?
It's gentle on the stomach!
Most iron supplements that you’ll find on the shelf at the drug store contain only one form of iron, usually a non-heme iron like ferrous sulfate.
The two forms of iron found in Bifera iron tablets – heme and non-heme (also known as HIP and PIC iron) – work together to enhance iron absorption in your body while minimizing common GI side effects, such as nausea and constipation. Bifera offers you the best of both worlds with two forms of iron.
One study shows that heme iron offers 25 times greater absorption than other iron supplements. A separate clinical research study found that heme iron in combination with non-heme iron work synergistically to increase iron absorption up to 40%.
