JOURNEY FERROCHEL® GENTLE IRON GRAPE MELTS $22.99 Specialized Ferrochel© Gentle Iron in a fast melting natural grape flavored tab. No constipation! Tastes really good! More than half of all bariatric post-ops are iron deficient, with one-third being severely deficient. When asked why they did not take iron supplements as directed; side effects of stomach upset, burning and constipation were the most common reasons. For most, fear of side effects is greater than fear of the deficiency. People who are iron deficient tire easily because their bodies are starved for oxygen. Chewing ice is a common sign of this deficiency. Ferrochel® Gentle Iron supports iron strength with smooth melt, great tasting natural grape flavored tabs. Unique attributes support its superior role as an iron supplement without the side effects of ordinary iron supplements. Journey Ferrochel® Gentle Iron Grape Melts are ideal for battling bariatric iron deficiency: grape melt tabs are non-constipating recommended by hematologists after IV iron infusions do not react with Calcium or block uptake – no more ‘Two Hour Rule’ do not cause stomach burning of cheaper iron forms used in other ‘bariatric’ brands tiny neutrally charged molecules slip right through nutrient ports along entire length of intestine In their ordinary form, minerals are difficult for the body to absorb through the intestine. Because small ‘protein peptides’ are easier for the body to absorb, the body will combine the minerals with amino acids to take advantage of the intestines affinity for protein absorption. This binding process is called chelation (key-lay-shun). Albion’s Ferrochel® does the stomachs work in advance by binding minerals to amino acids resulting in small, organic iron molecules that can pass easily through the intestinal wall and into the body. Directions: As a dietary supplement, adults take one (1) to four (4) melt tablets daily as recommended by a health professional.* *Mechanick Jl, et al.
