Powerful ingredients with purpose
Desiccated stomach substance may contain factors that could be required for vitamin B12 absorption1
- Individuals with inadequate intrinsic factor have a compromised ability to absorb B12 efficiently2
- Intrinsic factor is produced by the parietal cells of the stomach
- Conditions that interfere with adequate intrinsic factor production may contribute to vitamin B12 deficiency2
Niferex® contains Quatrefolic®, the bioactive form of folate3-5
- Quatrefolic® is a body-ready form of folate, that avoids the need for metabolic conversion to the active form
- Bypasses the 4-step folic acid to 5- MTHF conversion process, and does not require the MTHFR enzyme
- Quatrefolic® ((6S)-5 methyltetrahydrofolate glucosamine salt) is almost 7X more bioavailable than folic acid at peak
- Does not mask the signs or symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency anemia
Active folate is required for many physiological functions6,7
- Essential for DNA and RNA synthesis, amino acid metabolism, and homocysteine remethylation
Two iron forms to support optimal absorption and tolerability
- Chelated Sumalate® iron – highly bioavailable with 40% absorption2
- Polysaccharide iron complex (PIC) – positive safety and tolerability profile allowing for higher iron intake8
