Iron is a difficult mineral for your body to absorb. EasyIron Extra Gentle contains iron bisglycinate, the form of iron that is absorbed 4.5 times better than most other forms. Our award-winning Superior Nutrient Absorption™ delivery system takes advantage of your body’s natural ability to absorb oils. Iron can only be absorbed in the upper intestine, but when suspended in oil, Iron can be absorbed anywhere in the digestive tract, giving you maximum results.

EasyIron is absorbed easily and therefore much less likely to cause constipation.
