Iron bisglycinate under the scrutiny of Oxford University scientists – improved bioavailability and safety of iron supplementation
Iron bisglycinate is an amino acid chelate consisting of two molecules of the simplest amino acid, i.e. glycine, and an iron ion. Its unique structure, which is similar to complexes naturally occurring in our bodies, allows better absorption and a reduction in adverse events from the gastrointestinal tract compared to traditional salts. It is described…
