MegaFood, a certified B Corporation and 1% for the Planet partner that crafts planet-first vitamins and minerals announced today the launch of Iron Energy Gummies. From the makers of the clinically-tested Blood Builder iron supplements comes MegaFood’s first iron gummy that provides 3-in-1 energy support from iron, vitamin B6, and B12 to promote red blood cell and cellular energy production.* While the Blood Builder iron supplements were developed for people with iron deficiency, MegaFood Iron Energy Gummies offers a lower potency formula with a moderate 4 mg of iron per serving to support the whole family’s energy needs.*
Since 60% of Americans report feeling fatigued,1 MegaFood is developing products to support healthy energy levels. With over 40 years of experience expertly crafting iron supplements, MegaFood’s Iron Energy Gummies are a solution for the whole family. Powered by 4 mg of iron per serving and a blend of vitamin B6 and B12, this daily supplement is safe for kids four and older, menstruating women, vegans, vegetarians, athletes, recent blood donors, and anyone in need of energy support.*
“The mineral, iron, is most famous for its crucial role in the synthesis of hemoglobin, which delivers oxygen throughout our body’s bloodstream. Iron is also used inside every single muscle cell in another oxygen-carrying protein called myoglobin that delivers the oxygen to where your calories are being burned for energy. Without enough iron, we cannot metabolize efficiently and that leads to feelings of decreased energy levels and overall fatigue,” says Dr. David Gundermann, Principal Nutrition Scientist at MegaFood. “At MegaFood we continue to invest in impactful research and development to improve the health and wellness of everyone, which is why our delicious, strawberry-flavored Iron Energy Gummies provide a gentle 3-in-1 formula that is perfect for the whole family.”
Common forms of iron in supplements, such as ferrous sulfate, have been shown to cause significant gastrointestinal side effects2. Iron Energy Gummies are made with a unique fermented iron bis-glycinate, the same form of iron that MegaFood uses in its Blood Builder products, and are formulated to be gentle on the stomach.
Iron Energy Gummies are non-GMO, vegan, gluten-free, and made with pectin and only 1 g of sugar per serving. They are also made without milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, fish, shellfish, and sesame.
Iron Energy Gummies are now available to purchase at Amazon and MegaFood.com. MegaFood will also be showcasing this product at Expo West in Anaheim, CA in March 2024.
