Iron is an essential nutrient that plays an important role in overall wellness. Globally, around 30% of women aged 15–49 may not get enough iron, and requirements can be even higher during pregnancy. Adequate iron intake and absorption are important for supporting everyday energy and overall wellbeing.
Heme vs Non-Heme Iron
There are two main types of iron found in foods
-
Heme iron comes from animal foods and is generally more readily absorbed by the body
-
Non-heme iron comes from plant-based foods and fortified products. Its absorption can be reduced by compounds in coffee, tea, calcium, and certain plant compounds
-
Pairing non-heme iron with vitamin C-rich foods such as citrus can help improve absorption
Including nutrient-rich wholefoods that contain heme iron can make it easier to support daily iron needs as part of a balanced diet.

A convenient way to include heme iron is through Organic Grass-Fed Beef Liver Capsules. These capsules are made from freeze-dried Australian grass-fed beef liver and provide a natural source of iron. They also contain additional nutrients such as B12, vitamin A, folate, and copper.
Beef liver capsules offer an easy way to support iron intake as part of your daily nutrition routine, making it simple to include iron-rich wholefoods without preparation.
Supporting Healthy Iron Intake
Maintaining adequate iron intake can be achieved through small, consistent steps. Focus on including iron-rich foods, pairing plant-based iron with vitamin C, and considering nutrient-dense wholefood options like beef liver capsules. These habits can help support general wellness and everyday energy as part of a balanced lifestyle.
