Iron Drops for Baby and Kids

VitaminFit Iron Drops are a vegetable and fruit mix consisting of organic iron and plant extracts with natural vitamin C.

Iron Drops are a 100% natural dietary supplement consisting of non-haem iron. The vitamin C present works well with iron, as vitamin C increases the absorption of iron in the body.

Why Iron Drops from VitaminFit?

VitaminFit Iron Drops for children contain easily absorbable iron bisglycinate, a completely natural and gentle form of iron that the body can absorb optimally without causing any complaints. The formula is 100% plant-based and free from artificial additives, fillers and preservatives, making it as pure as possible.

Thanks to the handy pipette, you can easily adjust the dosage as needed, making it flexible and easy to use. The vitamin C present promotes the absorption of iron from plant sources in the body. The supplement also contains rutin, an important antioxidant from the bioflavonoid group. This helps protect the body against free radicals.

Why iron for children?

Children need iron for energy. If your child eats fewer vegetables, whole grains or meat for a period of time, they may develop an iron deficiency. The mineral iron contributes to the production of red blood cells and haemoglobin. This helps give blood its red colour. Haemoglobin absorbs the oxygen that is inhaled through the lungs and transports it to all the cells in the body. If there is too little iron in the body, haemoglobin cannot be produced in the blood.

Sufficient iron in the diet is important for proper brain function (memory, learning at school), fitness and muscle coordination.

It is also important for young children with a vegetarian diet to ensure they get enough iron.

Where is iron found?

The mineral iron is found in animal products such as meat, meat products and poultry, particularly organ meats such as kidneys and liver. Beef contains about twice as much iron as pork.

Cereal products: for example, wholemeal bread, wholemeal breakfast cereals, wholemeal pasta and vegetables, especially spinach, broccoli, cauliflower, broad beans, beetroot, rosehip and endive.
