Available for private branding by Irvine, Calif.-based VitaCeutical &Vitamer Laboratories, the Whole Food Iron Capsules provide 100 percent of the recommended daily intake (RDI) of iron and include supporting C and B vitamins to promote iron absorption. The whole food-based iron is bound to a rice protein, which can be easier on the gastrointestinal tract, better absorbed and be better utilized throughout the body, according to the manufacturer. The rice bran supports healthy cholesterol levels for individuals already within the normal range, while the bioflavonoids can help to strengthen blood vessels and support blood flow, the company added. The product is soy free, gluten free, suitable for vegans and third-party-verified to be manufactured without GMO ingredients., the company said
