As the world’s most common nutritional disorder¹, isn’t it worth finding out if you’re getting enough iron?

 

Feeling tired all the time or looking a bit pale?

This could be attributed to iron deficiency. To restore your iron levels effectively, try Spatone. It is a completely natural liquid iron supplement and due to its exceptionally high level of absorbency (up to 40%²), it shouldn’t cause any of the gastrointestinal side-effects commonly associated with conventional iron supplements such as constipation, diarrhoea and nausea. It is ideal for use during pregnancy.

 

• Safe and gentle Spatone can be taken every day
• Ideal for those intolerant to solid iron tablets
• One sachet should fulfil your RDA of iron
• Suitable for anyone over 2 years old
• Easy to take. Spatone can be taken alone or mixed with fruit juice (vitamin C aids absorption)

 

What are the symptoms of iron deficiency?

 

Common signs of iron deficiency include:

• Fatigue
• Dizziness
• Shortness of breadth
• Pale skin
• Headaches
• Palpitations
• Altered taste
• Difficulty swallowing if long term iron deficient

 

Who needs extra iron?

 

Pregnant Women

With iron requirement doubling or even tripling during pregnancy, it is vital that mothers-to-be supplement their iron intake to keep up with the demand. Post pregnancy, an iron boost can help maintain energy and production of milk.

 

Teenagers

Growth spurts, poor dietary choices and higher activity levels mean that teenagers are at high risk of iron deficiency. Teenage girls need to pay particular attention, as their iron stores are depleted each month following menstruation.

 

Athletes & those exercising regularly.

In order to maximise oxygen delivery, which is crucial to achieving peak physical performance, the body needs iron. The iron needs of those exercising can consequently be 30% greater than those who don’t, so it is vital that they consume the recommended amount.

 

Vegetarians & Vegans

Since the type of iron found in rwed meat is particularly well absorbed by the body, non-meat eaters have to be careful about their iron levels. Spatone is an ideal substitute for this group and is Vegetarian Sopciety approved.

 

60+

As we grow in age, our capacity to absorb iron diminishes. This, coupled with poor appetite can mean that iron levels aren’t as high as they should be and need to be supplemented.

 

Everyone!

Iron is necessary for general well-being. It helps fight fatigue and keeps our energy levels up.
