Iron Excel also provides vitamin C to improve the absorption of iron from the diet, plus vitamins B1, B2, B6, B12 and folic acid. What does iron do? Iron helps maintain energy levels by assisting with the formation of haemoglobin and red blood cells. This is vital because your cells need oxygen to produce energy, and oxygen is transported around the body in haemoglobin molecules within the red blood cells. Folic acid and vitamins B6 and B12 are also needed for healthy red blood cell production. Who needs more iron? Some people have an increased need for iron, while others may be at risk of consuming inadequate amounts of it in their diets. Key population groups to be aware of include menstruating women, vegetarians and vegans. Women are more likely than men to have low dietary iron intakes. Data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics indicates that 38-40 per cent of women and teenage girls aged 14-50 aren’t getting the required amount of iron from their food.* Disclaimer: Always read the label. Follow the directions for use. Vitamin and mineral supplements can only be of assistance when dietary intake is inadequate. *Australian Bureau of Statistics, Food Standards Australia New Zealand.
