Plant Iron, Quantum

Your Essential Need for Quality Iron

Quantum Plant Iron is an effective, well tolerated, bioavailable form of plant-source iron, designed to help support healthy iron levels in the body.*  Worldwide, the World Health Organization estimates that over one billion people currently have deficiencies in iron. In the U.S., the U.S. Centers for Disease Control has shown that iron deficiency is highest among toddlers, menstruating women, especially those with heavy menses, and adult females. Low levels of iron are known to contribute to suboptimal energy levels.*  Many people prefer taking nature-based, plant-based iron instead of conventional iron supplements, such as ferrous sulfate, which can cause gastrointestinal stress, nausea and constipation, and is poorly absorbed. Instead, plant-source iron is the preferred form of iron.   

Red Blood Cell Production and Healthy Metabolism

Your body uses iron in multiple ways, including as an essential element for blood production.* Iron is especially found in hemoglobin and myoglobin, present in red blood cells and muscle cells that help transfer oxygen from your lungs to the tissues of your body. This key nutrient ensures proper growth and functioning of the body and supports the healthy production of proteins essential for oxygen transport.* In addition, sufficient amounts of iron are required for healthy energy levels, immune system health, and the regulation of body temperature.* This stellar product supports red blood cell production and immune system health.* 

Beware of Low Iron!

When blood levels of iron are too low, it can lead to feelings of weakness, fatigue, shortness of breath on exertion, dizziness, drowsiness, irritability and loss of libido. Athletes need approximately 1.5 times as much iron as non-athletes. People who are on a strict vegan or vegetarian diet may be at risk for suboptimal iron levels. Iron levels can also plummet from blood loss due to an injury and muscle damage. 

Iron and Pregnancy

To supply a growing fetus with oxygen and nutrients, blood volume and red blood cell production increase dramatically during pregnancy. This increase causes the demand for iron to spike as well. Insufficient iron intake can lead to iron deficiency during pregnancy. Quantum Plant Iron promotes healthy pregnancy by helping pregnant women meet their daily iron needs.* 

Plant Iron: Excellent for Athletes

Low iron levels can reduce the body’s uptake of oxygen to all cells. When oxygen to cells is reduced, this can lead to a reduced work capacity as well as reduced aerobic athletic performance. A competition athlete will want to be able to trust the quality of their nutritional supplements and will look for them to be NSF-Certified. This stringent certification process means that every batch of a nutritional formula is FDA compliant, is strictly tested for label claims and also designates that more than 200 substances banned by many major athletic organizations, including steroids, stimulants, narcotics, diuretics and more, are not present in the product. 

The Power of Plants!

Natural iron can be found in a wide variety of foods, primarily animal sources such as meat and seafood. However, people who follow a plant-based diet may need additional iron to support their daily needs. Quantum Plant Iron is formulated using organic curry leaf extract, a rich source of natural iron, and organic MCT oil extract to offer high-quality, purely plant-based iron that is suitable for vegans and vegetarians alike. This plant-based iron is bioavailable and digestion-friendly, and is non-GMO, gluten free, and soy free.*
