Top Medical Research Studies

We explored whether home fortification of foods with multiple micronutrient powders (MNPs) impacts nutrition and health in children under two years. Analyzing 29 studies, we discovered that using MNPs significantly lowered anaemia rates by 18% and iron deficiency by 53%. Moreover, MNPs improved haemoglobin levels compared to no intervention. However, there was no notable influence on weight. While the intervention showed promise for anaemia, its direct effects on other health areas remain unclear, indicating a need for more research in this area.

Cold symptoms alleviated

I cannot live without this! During childbirth, I suffered from a common cold, sore throat, and fever monthly. Despite numerous visits to the ENT department, I was desperate for relief. After learning I might be low in iron and zinc, I switched to Now Foods, which contains significantly more iron than others I'd tried. Initially, the smell made me gag, but I got used to it. I recommend purchasing from iHerb or Rakuten for better prices.

Profound health improvement

The whole family was iron deficient. After years on heme iron, my chronic palpitations, fatigue, and coldness continued. Transitioning to this product yielded remarkable improvements; my energy surged in three months. I felt revitalised and hopeful about life again after so long.

Iron supplements for women have transformed my wellbeing! Initially, I took them twice daily, but switching to three times markedly improved my symptoms, especially cold sensations. Though I thought Japanese supplements were superior, chelated iron proved crucial. After two months, I no longer rely on daily medication.

Less cold sensitivity

I purchased this for my daughter, who is anaemic and often feels cold. After a few months, her menstrual cramps improved significantly. Although she initially experienced nausea, I believe those with low protein should first boost their protein intake, followed by vitamin C. A year later, we are both much healthier.

Dizziness improved significantly
22 people found this helpful
Since using this product for my low blood pressure and anaemia, I've experienced a noticeable reduction in dizziness and cold sensitivity. Previously, I relied on heme iron, which proved ineffective. After consulting a friend, I learned about the absorption benefits of this product, and it has made a majority difference in my health.

Cold relief expected
1 people found this helpful
One grain is sufficient. The capsule is small and easy to swallow. I've been taking one tablet daily with B complex and vitamin C at night, and I feel that my cold symptoms have improved. I hope to see further improvement in my sensitivity to the common cold with continued use.

I ordered this for my husband, who suffers from cold limbs and occasional large pimples on his back. After taking it with vitamin D for 90 days, we noticed no significant changes. Although the weather improved, his limbs remained cold. While the acne cleared up, I can't recommend this product or order it again.
