Swedish Supplements Iron Plus / with Vit C & Folic Acid / is a complex of Iron , Vitamin C and Folic Acid , which are extremely important for the human body and play an essential role in the production of red blood cells.
Iron is essential for health and is found in every human cell, mainly bound to the proteins that form the oxygen-carrying molecule hemoglobin. The human body contains about 4 grams of iron.
Iron serves as the core of the hemoglobin molecule, which is the oxygen-carrying component of red blood cells. Red blood cells pick up oxygen from the lungs and distribute it to the tissues in the body. This ability is explained by the presence of iron in the hemoglobin molecule. Without iron, the body will produce less hemoglobin and therefore less oxygen to deliver to the tissues.
Iron is also an important component of another protein called myoglobin. It is also an oxygen-carrying molecule that distributes oxygen to cells in muscles, especially skeletal and cardiac muscles. Iron plays a key role in energy production as a component of certain enzymes, including ferric catalase, ferric peroxidase, and cytochrome enzymes.
It is also involved in the production of Carnitine , a non-essential amino acid important for the proper absorption of fats. The functioning of the immune system is also dependent on the availability of sufficient iron.
Vitamin C or Ascorbic Acid performs many important functions in the human body. It significantly increases the absorption of Iron, participates in the formation of bones, teeth and tissues, is also a strong immunostimulant and is one of the most important vitamins for the human body. Vitamin C has a beneficial effect in the fight against free radicals !
Folic acid is a water-soluble B vitamin that plays an important role in bodily functions in both children and adults. It is needed for vital chemical reactions that stimulate the formation of new cells in the body's tissues and organs and for the formation of new red blood cells from the bone marrow. Folic acid is also key to nervous system health and to the metabolization of proteins that we eat.
