AminoJern is an easily absorbable and gentle vegan iron supplement that is especially recommended for pregnant women. It has been tested in a Danish trial on pregnant women at Næstved Hospital's Pregnancy Department. The study showed that AminoJern is particularly suitable for pregnant women because it is absorbed well and gently in the body, so that only a daily dose of 25 mg is necessary to prevent iron deficiency in pregnant women. The lower dose results in fewer stomach upsets, which can otherwise affect many pregnant women.

Effective and gentle effect

AminoJern consists of an amino acid chelate, where two amino acids are bound to an iron atom, and thereby the iron is carried through the stomach like a blind passenger. The amino acid chelate remains intact on its way through the gastrointestinal system and into the body. Amino acids are already used to a large extent by the body and are therefore particularly well absorbed. One of the challenges with many iron supplements is that they can inhibit the absorption of other minerals, but because AminoJern is the so-called amino acid chelate, this means that the absorption of other nutrients, such as zinc, which has an effect on fertility, is affected to a lesser extent than it would be with other iron preparations.

Recommendation of iron supplementation

The National Board of Health recommends that all pregnant women receive a daily iron supplement of 40-50 mg from the 10th week of pregnancy and the rest of the pregnancy. When using AminoJern, however, it is documented that a daily tablet of 25 mg of iron is sufficient to prevent iron deficiency and possible anemia in pregnant women.

Usually, iron supplements are also recommended for breastfeeding women in the first 8 weeks after birth. Others who can particularly benefit from iron supplements are:

Menstruating women of childbearing age

Teenagers - especially girls

Elderly with unilateral diet

Vegetarians and vegans

When is it best to take AminoJern?

The body absorbs your AminoJern best when you take your iron preparation at bedtime or between meals. Please take it with water or fruit juice with citrus fruit. This is because vitamin C promotes the body's absorption of iron. Please avoid consuming it together with milk, cocoa, coffee or tea, as this in turn reduces the absorption of iron.
