Salus Floradix Formula 700mL
- Floradix Formula Iron is like a courier, and oxygen represents packages being delivered
- The courier collects packages from the distribution center, loads them onto trucks, and delivers them to homes
- Without enough couriers, deliveries are delayed
- Similarly, iron picks up oxygen from the lungs, loads it onto red blood cells, and delivers it to every cell in the body
- Cells use this oxygen to create energy, powering the body's functions
- A lack of iron means insufficient oxygen delivery, leading to reduced energy production and fatigue
- Low iron impacts more than just energy levels
- When cells are deprived of oxygen, body functions suffer, affecting everything from the brain to the toes
- Symptoms of low iron include slow wound healing, muscle weakness, difficulty concentrating, memory issues, depression, headaches, hair loss, and weakened immunity
- In children, it can lead to poor cognitive development, behavioral concerns, and ADHD
- To assess iron levels, a blood test measuring ferritin—iron storage—is essential
- In Canada, the "normal" ferritin range for adults is 5-272 µg/L, a broad spectrum where someone with a ferritin of 7 µg/L may feel vastly different from someone with 200 µg/L
- Research suggests iron supplementation can benefit those with fatigue, even if their ferritin isn’t low enough to cause anemia
- A ferritin level of 70-100 µg/L is often recommended for optimal function
- Certain groups are more prone to low iron, such as: Vegans and vegetarians Those with nutrient-poor diets Women with heavy menstrual cycles Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals Children with ADHD or behavioral concerns Individuals taking acid-blocking medications People experiencing fatigue, depression, or brain fog Proper iron management supports overall health and well-being Those with digestive conditions like Celiac disease, colitis, Crohn's disease, or SIBO How It Works Floradix is a liquid iron supplement designed to support the production of healthy red blood cells
