High Quality Heme Iron Polypeptide Powder

Heme iron polypeptide is an ideal iron source from natural porcine hemoglobin for iron supplements. Study showed its iron absorption rate 23 times greater than ionic iron. No common allergens and fewer side effects.

1. The first choice of material as a natural Fe supply agent for food, medicine and healthy products.

Heme iron: In 1930, German scientist Hans Fisher discovered the best substance for iron-deficiency anemia, organic porphyrin iron, with an absorption rate of up to 35%. Heme is an important component of hemoglobin, and its purified form in vitro is hemin (hemin). In the past, it was only known that heme iron can be directly absorbed by intestinal mucosal cells, but it is not known how it is absorbed. Now it is clear that heme iron is directly absorbed by duodenal and upper small intestinal mucosal cells in the form of metalloporphyrins to form endosomes. Absorption, iron ions are separated under the action of intracellular heme oxygenase and used by the body [21], and absorption is not affected by dietary types (protein, plant fiber, oxalic acid, tannic acid, phosphoric acid, plant fiber, etc.) Acid does not affect its absorption), no gastrointestinal irritation and other advantages, it is currently the best iron source. The absorption rate of ferrous sulfate is only 1%-3%, and it is severely irritating to the intestines and stomach, and has obvious toxic and side effects. In July 1983, the US FDA approved hemin as a medicine.
