PROTOFER DROPS 30 ML BIOTRADING



Protofer Drops

Description
Iron-based food supplement. Iron is a fundamental micronutrient for the human body. In fact, it is an essential component in some basic biological mechanisms such as DNA replication, cellular energy processes and oxygen utilization, so its deficiency during development has multiple effects on erythropoiesis, neuronal development and cardiac, skeletal, muscular and gastrointestinal functions. In preterm infants, the high iron requirement, higher than the intake provided by a normal milk diet, requires early supplementation. During childhood, iron deficiency anemia is the most common micronutrient deficiency disorder in relation to a high demand for iron. In fact, during this period there is rapid growth (high requirement) and at the same time a dietary intake of bioavailable iron that is sometimes poor.
Among the nutritional deficiencies in adults, iron is the most frequent: to varying degrees of seriousness, it affects 30% of the population.
In elderly and debilitated subjects, iron deficiency is due to a deficient supply or poor absorption of the same. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the need for iron increases, to allow the growth of the placenta and correct oxygenation of mother and child. It is necessary for the production of red blood cells in the unborn child and to maintain those of the mother at the right level. Iron deficiency during pregnancy leads to a form of anemia called gestational sideropenic anemia.

Gluten free (less than 20 ppm).
