ACTIVE IRON FOR MEN

Men can also have low iron levels. This can be a result of a variety of reasons including insufficient dietary intake, particularly for vegetarians, or those with health conditions that result in malabsorption.

It can also be a result of loss of iron due to exercise especially for those with a high training load. Iron is used by the body’s muscles to help produce energy. It is required for formation of haemoglobin (blood) and myoglobin (muscles) for oxygen transport around the body and muscles cells.

Athletes who enjoy endurance exercise (e.g. running, rowing, cycling, triathlons) need iron to maintain and support energy. There is also a need for other essential nutrients which is why this is a great supplement for men with high energy needs.
