Clinicians Iron Boost is a potent, once-daily iron supplement which works to quickly and gently restore iron levels in those who are deficient.

Unlike many iron supplements, which are made with soluble salts, Clinicians Iron Boost contains carbonyl iron, a pure and potent form of the mineral which provides a number of benefits:

• Greater bioavailability
• Minimal metallic taste
• Gentle on the digestive tract
• Fewer side effects
• Reduced toxicity

In fact Clinicians Iron Boost is so gentle that it is safe for use in pregnancy and breastfeeding, elderly patients, and young children. Just because it is gentle doesn't mean it is not potent, however---as with any iron supplement, care should be taken that large amounts are not consumed, as too much iron can be as problematic as too little.

The formula also contains iron co-factors, including vitamin C, vitamin B12 and folic acid. These nutrients further enhance absorption and help the body utilize the iron for maximum effectiveness.

Iron is a critical trace mineral used to make hemoglobin, which in turn transports oxygen throughout the body. Anemia, the term for the condition in which oxygen transport is inhibited, can produce a range of symptoms---from mildly irritating to fatal. Some of the more common symptoms noticed in early stages of anemia include:

• Fatigue
• Weakness
• Shortness of breath
• Confusion
• Poor memory
• Pallor

Some people are at greater risk of iron deficiency or anemia than others, particularly women who are pregnant or menstruating, vegetarians, and individuals who are very elderly or very young.

Of course, not all individuals at risk of anemia develop the condition, and symptoms of anemia can have many other causes---anemia itself can be caused by a variety of factors which have nothing to do with iron deficiencies. The only way to truly know iron levels is to have them tested at a doctor's office or laboratory. It is highly advisable to confirm iron levels are low before starting iron supplementation.

Directions for Use

The standard dose of Clinicians Iron Boost is one capsule per day. A glass of fluid and food is recommended with each dose.

The standard dose of one capsule (24 mg) daily should not be exceeded without doctor approval, particularly if pregnant or breastfeeding.

Capsules are designed to be opened if desired; contents can be sprinkled in orange juice for easier administration in patients who have difficulty swallowing, are unwilling to swallow pills, or simply out of personal preference. Since this product is made with carbonyl iron, the metallic taste is minimal compared to most other iron-containing supplements.

Clinicians Iron Boost can be used along with multivitamins and other supplements, but ideally these should be taken a few hours apart for maximum absorption of both products.
