Spatone Liquid Iron (28 sachet box)

Spatone 100% Natural Liquid Iron Supplement is a gentle daily iron provider and is ideal for everyone over the age of two, including pregnant and post-natal women.

Spatone Iron is not manufactured.  Spatone is a 100% natural iron food supplement collected from the mountains of Snowdonia, Northern Wales.  This iron is naturally in water, so it's easily and gently absorbed by your body.

Faster, easier absorption...

Because the iron in Spatone is already in solution, the iron does not have to be dissolved in the stomach before it can be absorbed and then utilised. High absorption means less needs to be taken.

Avoid side effects...

The iron in Spatone is so easily absorbed, you need only take small quantities to get your entire average Actual Daily Iron Requirement. This is how you avoid the common side effects like constipation, stomach irritation and headaches so often associated with taking iron. You see it's not the iron you absorb which causes the side effects, it's the residual amount you're trying to excrete that causes the problems.

What makes Spatone unique?

Spatone is 100% natural

Spatone is a naturally occurring iron-rich mineral water which is collected and packed straight from the source in the heart of Snowdonia, North Wales. We collect it, we filter it for bacteria and we fill it into our convenient, easy-to-open sachets. At no stage do we add anything to the water or convert the water’s natural composition. That means with Spatone you don’t have to worry about other ingredients that might cause adverse reactions or complications.

100% natural – nothing added everything gained.

The iron in Spatone is highly absorbable

It is not actually how much iron we consume that matters but the amount of iron that our body is able to absorb. It has been shown that the iron absorption from Spatone is up to 40%. This is much higher than the iron absorption from food sources (5 - 20%) or conventional iron supplements (3 - 10%). Spatone is thus a highly effective source of iron which can be consumed to help prevent iron deficiency.

Reduced scope of side-effects

Since the iron in Spatone is easily assimilated in the stomach, you only need to take a small quantity to get your entire recommended daily allowance (RDA)of iron. This is why Spatone does not result in the common side effects often associated with conventional iron supplements such as constipation, stomach irritation or headaches. Each sachet of Spatone only contains 5mg of elemental iron but with an absorption rate of 40% you will get all The iron your body needs without having to excrete too much iron - often the cause of the unpleasant side-effects experienced with iron supplementation.

Spatone is packed into convenient sachets which can either be taken as they are or added to fruit juice - making Spatone the most convenient liquid iron supplement available. One sachet of Spatone provides you with your RDA of iron - ideal to maintain healthy iron levels. During pregnancy you can safely take up to two sachets a day
