Iron Spray oral spray with liposomal microencapsulated iron & vitamin C, 150 sprays, for up to 1 month

Iron Spray – Liposomal, microencapsulated iron with Vitamin C (oral spray)

Iron Spray is a food supplement in oral spray format with liposomal, microencapsulated iron and acerola Vitamin C. The liposomal technology shields iron from gastric acids and supports its direct absorption in the intestine, reducing typical gastric discomfort and minimising losses. Compared with conventional iron salts, it is highly tolerated.

Why choose liposomal, microencapsulated iron

Liposomes are phospholipid microspheres similar to cell membranes. Encapsulating iron in liposomes offers:

• Higher absorption and bioavailability versus conventional salts (e.g., ferrous sulfate).
• Fewer gastrointestinal complaints (nausea, constipation, irritation).
• Better tolerability, even for those sensitive to traditional iron.

Liposomal iron vs traditional iron

• Gastric protection: the liposome shields iron from stomach acids so the active ingredient reaches the intestine intact, where it can exert its full effect.
• Tolerability: liposomal iron helps reduce common discomfort, while classic salts may burden the stomach.
• The spray format (with atomiser) makes intake easier, faster, and avoids swallowing tablets.

EFSA-recognised benefits of iron and Vitamin C

• Iron: contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, normal oxygen transport, energy-yielding metabolism, normal function of the immune system, and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue (EFSA).
• Vitamin C: increases iron absorption (non-haem iron), contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, normal immune function, and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue (EFSA).

Vitamin C: a key ally for iron absorption

Vitamin C reduces ferric iron to ferrous iron and facilitates its transport across intestinal membranes, improving the utilisation of non-haem iron from food or supplements. In practice, beyond its antioxidant roles and support against fatigue, Vitamin C works alongside iron to make it more effective.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about Iron Spray

Who is Iron Spray suitable for?

For those seeking a practical, well-tolerated iron intake: adults with tiredness and fatigue, increased needs, or iron-poor diets. In case of anaemia or during pregnancy/breastfeeding, consult a doctor.

Is liposomal iron gentler on the stomach?

Yes. Microencapsulation in liposomes improves tolerability and reduces the typical discomfort of traditional iron salts.

Can I take it with coffee, tea or dairy?

Tannin-rich beverages (tea, coffee) and calcium from dairy can reduce iron absorption. Allow a 1–2 hour interval. Vitamin C, instead, promotes absorption.

How much iron is in each serving?

One serving (5 sprays) provides 7 mg of iron and 3.1 mg of Vitamin C.

Can it stain teeth?

Minor staining may rarely occur and can be removed with normal oral hygiene. We recommend drinking a glass of water right after use.

Is it suitable for vegans and coeliacs?

Yes. The formula is 100% vegan and gluten-free, made in Switzerland to high food-safety standards, and contains no alcohol.
