Overview
An iron and vitamin C combination capsule from Pure Encapsulations, providing 15 mg of iron alongside 175 mg of vitamin C in each of 60 vegetarian capsules. Pairing iron with vitamin C is a common formulation choice since vitamin C aids iron absorption.
The 15 mg iron dose sits close to the standard adult daily allowance rather than a therapeutic high dose used to correct diagnosed deficiency, and the added 175 mg of vitamin C is meant to support that absorption rather than serve as a standalone vitamin C product.
- 15 mg iron plus 175 mg vitamin C
- 60 capsules per bottle
- Vegetarian and gluten free
- Marketed for red blood cell and energy support
Who it's for
Women and men looking for a combined iron plus vitamin C capsule for general red blood cell and energy support. Not intended as a high-dose iron product for treating a confirmed severe deficiency, which would typically call for a larger iron dose under medical guidance.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Combines iron with vitamin C for absorption support
- Vegetarian and gluten free
- 60 capsules per bottle
- 15 mg iron is a moderate dose, not therapeutic strength
- No reviews on file
Performance notes
Vitamin C is included specifically because it enhances non-heme iron absorption, so pairing the two in one capsule is intended to make the 15 mg iron dose more effective than iron taken alone.
