Lactoferrin Complex - 60 capsules - by Unimedica

Natural support for specific iron needs

Unimedica's Lactoferrin Complex has been developed to provide a natural, pleasant, and effective iron supply for people with specific iron requirements. Our Lactoferrin Complex combines high-quality Biotis™ lactoferrin from cow's milk, acerola fruit powder with natural vitamin C, and plant-based iron from curry leaf extract in a gastro-resistant capsule (DRCaps®).

Supports blood formation and immune system through optimized iron absorption

This sophisticated combination with vitamin C (ascorbic acid) enhances iron absorption and supports blood formation. Iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin, as well as to the normal function of the immune system. Lactoferrin binds iron and can support iron metabolism and the body's natural defenses. This is helpful when iron absorption in the digestive system is impaired or insufficient. For example, this may be challenging with predominantly plant-based diets. By "collecting" and transporting iron, lactoferrin also deprives iron-dependent bacteria of their food, which can benefit the microbiome and immune defenses.

The ultimate trio for vegetarian iron supply

Lactoferrin helps store iron in the body and transport it to where it is needed. Our Lactoferrin Complex contains the branded raw material Biotis™ lactoferrin from cow's milk, which is highly bioavailable.

Curry leaf extract serves as a well-absorbed plant-based iron source, making it an excellent option for natural iron intake, even with a vegetarian diet. Normally, we obtain most of our iron from meat and fish.

Acerola fruit powder provides natural vitamin C (ascorbic acid), which effectively enhances iron absorption.

So your cells don't run out of breath

Iron plays a crucial role in blood formation and oxygen transport in the body. It reduces tiredness and supports energy metabolism. Iron is also an important mineral for cognitive function and supports the immune system. Vitamin C is one of the most essential vitamins for good reason—it supports many bodily functions, including iron absorption from food.

Iron and its helpers in daily nutrition

In addition to meat and fish, good sources of iron include beetroot, Brussels sprouts, kale, legumes like lentils and chickpeas, oats, nuts, and seeds. Combining these with vitamin C-rich fruits and vegetables such as citrus fruits, sweet potatoes, cabbage, or red peppers can further improve iron absorption. Lactoferrin comes to the table via cow's milk.

How Unimedica's Lactoferrin Complex can support iron absorption

Our Lactoferrin Complex is an effective solution when dietary iron intake is insufficient or iron utilization in the digestive tract is impaired. The well-thought-out combination of ingredients supports iron intake and its metabolism in the body. The gastro-resistant DRCaps® ensure the iron passes through the stomach unharmed and reaches where it is needed.

What is lactoferrin?

Lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein naturally found in various bodily fluids of mammals, including milk. It is particularly concentrated in human colostrum (mother's milk).
