Iron C – 60 Gummies Iron + Vitamin C
Iron C – 60 Gummies Iron + Vitamin C
Iron C solves two problems at once — getting the iron your body needs, and getting it in a way that does not upset your stomach. The fact is that vitamin C dramatically improves the absorption of non-haem iron — this is not a minor detail, it is well-established science. The cute gummy form makes it suitable for children suffering from iron deficiency, as well as women with anaemia who cannot tolerate conventional iron supplements that cause nausea and constipation.
Why Choose It?
- Vitamin C significantly boosts iron absorption at the same time — not separately
- Gummy form is far gentler on the stomach than conventional iron tablets
- Ideal for Egyptian children among whom iron deficiency is very common
- Suitable for women of childbearing age who lose iron with monthly menstruation
- Sweet taste means children cooperate with supplementation without a struggle
When to Use It?
- When your child shows fatigue, paleness, or difficulty concentrating — possible signs of iron deficiency
- For women suffering from anaemia or iron deficiency who cannot tolerate conventional iron supplements
- When your doctor has recommended iron supplementation and you want a gentler, easier option
Key Ingredients
- Iron (as Ferric Hydroxide Polymaltose) 5-10mg: gentle paediatric iron in gummy form — minimal GI upset

How to Use?

FAQs
Why is vitamin C with iron so important?
Vitamin C converts iron from its ferric form (Fe3+) to the ferrous form (Fe2+) that the gut absorbs far more easily. Without C, a large portion of iron passes through unabsorbed — making vitamin C not just a bonus but a key part of the formula.
Will these gummies cause constipation like regular iron supplements?
Gummies are generally far gentler on the digestive system than conventional iron tablets. Some people may notice slightly darker stools which is normal, but severe constipation is much less common with the gummy format.
How long before we notice improvement in iron levels?
Typically after 4-8 weeks of consistent use. Improvements in fatigue and energy levels may be felt sooner, but a blood test is the reliable way to confirm progress.
