Iron nanoparticles show promising antibacterial effects
We investigated how iron oxide nanoparticles can combat bacterial infections in the urinary tract. During our study, we analyzed urine samples from elderly patients and identified various bacterial strains causing infections. By synthesizing iron oxide nanoparticles, we tested their effectiveness against these bacteria.
We found that these nanoparticles displayed strong antibacterial activity, particularly against gram-negative bacteria. The minimum inhibitory concentration demonstrated significant results compared to controls, indicating their potential as a novel treatment option. However, results suggested that while effective, iron oxide nanoparticles’ advantages may not be uniform across all bacteria types.

We investigated how serum iron levels might influence the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and other bacterial infections. Using a method called Mendelian randomization, we analyzed genetic data related to iron levels from various large studies.
Interestingly, our findings suggest that higher iron levels do not significantly increase the risk of most infections. However, we did find that elevated iron stores could be linked to an increased risk of bacterial infections.
Therefore, while iron supplementation appears generally safe, we recommend cautious use during bacterial infections or for individuals prone to them.

Ciprofloxacin-enhanced iron nanoparticle therapy
We explored the effectiveness of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) designed to enhance the delivery of ciprofloxacin against resistant E. coli in urinary tract infections.
Targeting the bacteria's fimbriae with mannoside-tagged nanoparticles significantly improved antibacterial activity, achieving up to 97.5% effectiveness.
We also noted impressive biofilm inhibition, confirming that this targeted approach potentially offers a promising alternative for tackling multidrug-resistant infections.

Fatigue resolved
I am now past the symptoms of low ferritin, which I strongly recommend checking with your doctor. I take iron in the evening with probiotics. The cold hands, mood swings, and fatigue are behind me, which is a relief!

Significant energy boost
From 83 to 121 in three months! It was so soft that I barely realised what I was drinking. My ferritin level rose by three digits. After two months, I started to feel wonderful! Previously, no matter how much iron I consumed, my gastrointestinal tract was worse off. Recently, I went cycling with younger friends and found myself riding the longest distance without feeling tired, while they were exhausted. I feel youthful again, my skin issues have cleared, and my hair and nails are stunning! A massive thank you to the developer of this product!

Digestive comfort
Having a history of anaemia, I found many iron preparations hard on my stomach. Solgar is gentle and effective; over 1.5 months, my ferritin improved from 6.2 to 12.6, and I feel optimistic about my health now!

Recommended for ferritin
This iron works well when taken with cofactors, and my ferritin levels rose significantly (without inflammation). It did not worsen my gastrointestinal tract. I highly recommend it.

Improved urinary tract symptoms
I've suffered from low ferritin for six years despite trying numerous iron supplements. This product raised my urinary tract health significantly and improved my condition after following dietary restrictions. I recommend paying attention to your diet while taking it, as it does not cause adverse symptoms like other iron supplements.
