Did you know how important iron is?

Iron is a vital nutrient for all humans, but especially crucial for kids. Infants and children are more prone to become iron deficient due to their rapid growth.

Iron is essential to the production of hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that shuttles oxygen to organs, muscles, tissues and cells, without sufficient iron intake, important parts of the children’s body will be affected.

Tummy friendly

Junio·Star® Ferrochelate contains amino acid chelated iron, that is is highly absorbable form of iron and gentler on the stomach than other iron forms.

Why choose Junio·Star® Ferrochelate

Addressing low iron before iron deficiency anemia is diagnosed is important because some behavioural and developmental abnormalities may not be easily reversed, especially in infants and toddlers.

Common symptoms of iron deficiency

  • Pale and dry skin
  • Frequent infections
  • Fatigue
  • Poor appetite
  • Abnormally rapid breathing
  • Slowed growth and development
  • Cold hands and feet
  • Behavioral problems
  • Nausea
  • Bruising under the eyes

Mix in drinks or food, they’ll never even know it’s there

Iron amino acid chelate

Contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin. Provides normal energy – yielding metabolism, that reduce fatigue and improves normal oxygen transport in the body.

Vitamin C

Increases absorption of iron and together with other ingredients improves hemoglobin synthesis.

Vitamin B6

Alters tissue iron concentration. Improves hemoglobin synthesis.

Composition

Vitamin B9

Contributes to normal formation of red blood cells. Helps iron function properly in the body.

Vitamin B12

Hemoglobin precursor and contributes to hemoglobin synthesis. Crucial role in erythropoiesis.

When to use Junio·Star® Ferrochelate

  • Iron deficiency anemia
  • Vitamin deficiency anemia
  • Iron deficiency prevention
  • To reduce fatigue and tiredness

Usage: recommended for children from the age of 1 – 6 to use internally 1 sachet once per day after the meal, for children from the age of 7 – 12 – 1 sachet twice per day after the meal. Dilute the content of sachet in the glass of water or juice or meal in room temperature. Duration of usage up to 3 months.

Warnings: do not use food supplement as the substitute of balanced and valuable nutrition; do not exceed recommended daily dosage; high sensitivity (allergy) towards some of the product ingredients; keep out of reach and sight of children!

Store at room temperature in original packaging avoiding direct sunlight.

IRON AMINO ACID CHELATE >INCREASES IRON LEVEL

STUDY

The aim of the study was to compare iron absorption from ferrous sulfate, ferrous bisglycinate, and ferric 80 trisglycinate in whole-maize meal.

RESULTS

Study has shown absorption from chelated iron to be 4 times higher than other iron forms1.

IRON AMINO ACID CHELATE PREVENTS IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA

STUDY

The aim of the study was to compare the efficacy of oral supplementation with ferrous bisglycinate and ferrous sulfate on ferritin concentration in schoolchildren with low iron stores1.

RESULTS

Study showed that group received bisglycinate chelate iron showed higher ferritin concentration in comparison to the group with ferrous sulfate supplementation and this positive effect of iron bisglycinate persisted 6 months after supplementation. Iron bisglycinate is highly absorbable iron form, than others and more gentle to the digestive system2.

VITAMIN C >ENHANCES IRON ABSORPTION

STUDY

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of ascorbic acid on iron absorption and an ascorbic acid fortified milk beverage with respect to milk fortified with iron alone.

RESULTS

Study has shown that ascorbic acid with iron in milk * Fe with ascorbic acid in milk (TEST) as a fortificant enhanced iron absorption when compared to milk that is fortified with only iron2.

VITAMIN B6 ALTERS TISSUE IRON CONCENTRATION

STUDY

Study was aimed to prove, that vitamin B6 deficiency affects iron concentration in tissues4.

RESULTS

Study shows, that vitamin B6 deficient group has no changes of iron concentration in tissues, but group with normal vitamin B6 consumption has greater effect of iron status, that proves vitamin B6 impact on the iron status of tissues in key metabolic tissues and hence needs to be factored into the amelioration of the condition.

VITAMIN B9, B12 AND IRON WORKS SYNER- GISTICALLY IN MAKING RED BLOOD CELLS

STUDY

The relationship between iron deficiency and vitamins B12 and B9 was recognized several decades ago. The aim of study was to examine the changes of vitamin B12/folate during treatment of iron deficiency anaemia5.

RESULTS

Study showed, that iron deficiency affect many metabolic pathways, including vitamin B12 and folate. These changes normalize after iron therapy.
