LACK OF IRON? THE IMMUNE SYSTEM IS AFFECTED

Not everyone knows that iron is essential to strengthen the immune defenses : there is a close link, in fact, between iron and defenses.

This precious mineral is useful for the proliferation and maturation of immune cells, in particular lymphocytes, associated with the generation of a specific response to external aggressions. At the level of the central nervous system it contributes to the synthesis of dopamine, the hormone that stimulates attention, memory, learning, and of serotonin, which regulates mood.

Sufficient iron intake is essential to maintain healthy immune system function. The daily iron requirement is estimated at around 10 mg / day for men and 18 mg / day for women.

The body is not able to produce iron autonomously and therefore it is necessary to supplement it with the diet. The foods that contain iron in greater quantities are: red meat, legumes, fish, green leafy vegetables, nuts and dark chocolate.

The simple intake of these foods in many cases is not enough because our body has a capacity to absorb iron that varies from food to food. The iron contained in meat is easily assimilated and usable, while that contained in legumes and vegetables is less assimilable. In these cases, combining foods rich in vitamin C facilitates their assimilation. Not only those who are deficient in iron must take it through targeted supplements, but all those who feel weak, tired and whose defenses are very fragile.

Imunfer , owes its name to the action of iron on the immune system. Its formula is enriched, in addition to folic acid, with vitamin C and vitamins B6 and B12.

Vitamin C, in addition to increasing the absorption of iron, guarantees the correct functioning of the immune defenses.

Vitamins B6 and B12 , on the other hand, favor the normal formation of red blood cells and the normal functioning of the immune system. Specifically, vitamin B6 is essential for the integrity and good functioning of the central nervous system and is essential for the synthesis of serotonin (which regulates mood, sleep, appetite, memory and the ability to concentration).

It is commonly found in a variety of foods such as fish, shellfish, meat, and dairy products.

Thanks to the absence of gluten and lactose, Imunfer is a product suitable for everyone!
