Slow Fe

Slow Fe is a nutritional brand that specializes in iron supplements to prevent iron-deficiency anemia. Iron-deficiency anemia is a common nutritional deficiency that occurs when the body doesn't have enough iron to produce red blood cells. Slow Fe supplements are designed to provide a slow, steady release of iron into the body, helping to prevent common side effects like upset stomach and constipation that can be associated with other iron supplements.

Slow Fe supplements come in different forms, including tablets, capsules, and drops, and are available both over-the-counter and by prescription. Each Slow Fe supplement contains a specific amount of elemental iron, which is the amount of iron that is available for the body to absorb. Slow Fe supplements also contain other ingredients that can help increase iron absorption, such as vitamin C.

Slow Fe is recommended for individuals with diagnosed iron-deficiency anemia, as well as for individuals who are at risk of developing it, such as pregnant women, women who experience heavy menstrual bleeding, and individuals who follow a plant-based or vegetarian diet. However, Slow Fe should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare provider, as taking too much iron can be harmful.
