Each line below was derived from this formula's own record at the time of verification. Nothing here was written by the brand, and nothing can be added that the evidence does not carry.

• Studied in people6 human studies on Iron (as iron bisglycinate) back this formula, each one cited.
• A mechanism that is settledHow Iron (as iron bisglycinate) works is settled pharmacology.
• Recent work on the recordThe most recent study on this record was published in 2015.
• Why this formatIt is a capsule, so the amount per serving is fixed and travels without measuring.
• The exact form, describedThe form on the label is Iron bisglycinate (Ferrochel). The record says what that form is and what it suits.
• Full label disclosureEvery ingredient on this label carries its own declared amount.
• Where it comes from and how it is madeIron (as iron bisglycinate) is made by synthetic.
• Positions this formula already qualifies forThis formula already qualifies for positions beyond the one it is sold into, on the evidence it carries.
• A position nobody is holding yetSome of those positions are ones almost nobody is selling to yet.

What the trials show about timing.

Time-to-effect windows the engine read from the trial record. Each is a window a named study measured, cited and dated, never written by the brand.

• Iron (as iron bisglycinate)within 24 hours of a single doseMeasured within a day

  A randomised crossover study in 54 nonanemic young women with plasma ferritin at or below 20 ug/L gave labelled iron sulfate as single fasting morning doses of 40, 60, 80, 160 and 240 mg. Twenty four hours after doses of 60 mg or more, serum hepcidin was raised and fractional iron absorption from the following dose was 35% to 45% lower. Across the dose range a sixfold rise in dose, 40 to 240 mg, produced a threefold rise in iron absorbed, 6.7 to 18.1 mg. Total iron absorbed from three doses inside 24 hours was not significantly greater than from two morning doses. The measure was iron absorption and serum hepcidin, not a symptom.

• Iron (as iron bisglycinate)Two to four weeks

  Before haemoglobin and ferritin start shifting on a blood panel, and everyday stamina tends to follow the markers rather than lead them.

The same ingredient, carried differently.

What each form is, and where it fits in a formula. Measured findings carry the study that reported them.

• Ferrous bisglycinate

  Iron chelated to two molecules of the amino acid glycine, rather than carried as a simple salt.

  Fits

  Trade-off

  at 18 mg it did not match 60 mg of ferrous sulfate for ferritin in a non-inferiority trial, and the meta-analysis found no significant difference in haemoglobin or ferritin among children
