ReaLipo® Fe
Liposomal Ferric Pyrophosphate & Ferrous Bisglycinate
Iron is a essential mineral required for hemoglobin synthesis, enabling red blood cells to transport oxygen efficiently throughout the body and supporting energy production. Deficiency can lead to fatigue, loss of appetite, and cold extremities, while adequate iron intake is essential for fetal and infant brain development. Women during pregnancy or menstruation, as well as athletes undergoing intense training, often require supplemental iron to maintain optimal health and performance.
Conventional iron supplements frequently show inconsistent bioavailability and gastrointestinal side effects due to DMT1-dependent absorption and the Fenton reaction of non-heme iron. ReaLipo® Fe overcomes these limitations by encapsulating ferric pyrophosphate and ferrous bisglycinate into liposomal vesicles. This delivery system allows iron to be absorbed via endocytic uptake by M-cells in the small intestine, remaining intact until released by lysosomal enzymes in hepatocytes.
This targeted mechanism enhances both iron absorption and tolerability, making ReaLipo® Fe an ideal ingredient for dietary supplements, functional foods, and specialized nutraceutical formulations requiring high-performance, bioavailable iron.
