The low-dose iron dietary supplement is a tablet that contains vitamins and minerals selected to help maintain healthy red blood cells and iron levels in the blood. The supplement ingredients aim to generate a supplement by taking a food which contains the naturally occurring, complex matrix of proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and all other elements associated with the vitamin or mineral of interest. These natural food sources are used to generate tablets that maintain the vitamin and mineral potency found in the original food source as well as the associated elements that naturally accompany it. One tablet will be taken once a day offering a total daily serving of:
