iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin and carries the oxygen needed by the cells of your body and your baby.
Iron deficiency causes fatigue, anaemia, decreased mental performance and greater susceptibility to infections. Women have higher iron needs than men: 16 mg/day versus 9 mg/day. These needs increase most during pregnancy, reaching 20 mg/day in the first months and 30 mg/day in the third trimester.

However, it is estimated that today 23% of women are iron deficient. Therefore, using a supplement is a common solution. This is why we advise women who want to have a child to make sure they consume adequate amounts of iron even before becoming pregnant. if you want to take an iron supplement. We suggest worry-free consumed frunutta Iron Supplements for Women.
