FLORADIXAND FLORAVITALCONTAINTHE FOLLOWING;

IronSupporting the body’s immune system, iron enables redblood cells to transport oxygen from the lungs to allparts of the body. Since red blood cells don’t reproducethemselves, iron is vital for their regeneration, whilstensuring the proper function of the heart, liver, gastro-intestinal system and skeletal muscle.The body’s iron

comes entirely from food andderived from meat, fish, fruit, nutsand vegetables. However, not all ironthat enters the body is absorbed –and medical experts agree that mostof us don’t take in enough iron. Ironabsorption rates can be improved bythe consumption of vitamin C. Ironabsorption can be hindered by toomuch processed bran, milk, black tea,coffee and vitamin E.
