Vitasauri® Kids Iron – gentle support for iron levels
Iron is essential for child development—but not every iron supplement is well tolerated. Vitasauri® Kids Iron uses iron bisglycinate, lactoferrin, and vitamin C for optimal bioavailability without gastrointestinal discomfort.
Why do children need iron?
Iron is one of the most important trace elements in the body. It plays a key role in the oxygen supply to cells, cognitive development, and energy production. Iron deficiency can manifest itself in symptoms such as fatigue, concentration problems, pale skin, and susceptibility to infections. Children during growth phases who eat little or no meat are particularly at risk. or have reduced iron absorption in the intestine due to, for example, celiac disease or inflammatory bowel disease. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that one in five children aged 0 to 4 years in industrialized countries is affected by iron deficiency.
Iron is essential for a child's healthy development. The importance of this nutrient is also reflected in the numerous approved health claims:
- Iron contributes to normal cognitive development
- It supports the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin
- Iron plays a role in energy metabolism and cell division
- It contributes to the normal function of the immune system
- Helps reduce tiredness and fatigue
- Supports normal oxygen transport in the body
High-quality formula for best tolerability
The innovative combination of ingredients ensures that the dosage of iron bisglycinate can be kept as low as possible while maintaining maximum bioavailability. This ensures it remains effective and optimally tolerated.
- Iron bisglycinate: A particularly easily absorbed form of iron, a chelated complex with glycine. This form is particularly well absorbed because it can be absorbed via amino acid transporters and is also gentle on the stomach.
- Lactoferrin: A natural iron transport protein that increases absorption in the intestine and helps deliver iron to the cells. Studies show that lactoferrin can improve iron absorption by more than 50%.
- Vitamin C from Acerola: Improves iron absorption many times over by facilitating the conversion of trivalent iron into bivalent iron, which the body can better utilize. even small amounts Vitamin C, between 50 and 100 mg, can improve iron absorption by up to 400%.

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers from Edubily
Why might my child need iron in addition to his or her diet?
Iron deficiency is widespread worldwide, even in industrialized countries. Children with vegetarian or vegan diets, premature babies, and children with certain digestive problems are particularly at risk for iron deficiency. Targeted supplementation can help optimally support iron levels.
Has the iron been tested for heavy metals?
Yes! Every batch is tested by an independent laboratory. You can request the test reports from us.
What is lactoferrin and why is it included?
Lactoferrin is a protein that occurs naturally in milk. It binds iron and promotes its targeted absorption in the body. Studies have shown that lactoferrin can increase iron absorption by over 50% and is particularly well tolerated.
Is the product lactose-free?
Yes! Although lactoferrin comes from milk, it does not contain lactose, making it suitable for people with lactose intolerance. However, individuals with extremely sensitive intolerance should consult a doctor before taking it.
What is the best way to take the iron powder?
The recommended dosage is 2 level scoops (1 g of powder) daily. Simply stir into 100 ml of water or another liquid, or add to food. It can be taken regardless of meals.
Why does it contain vitamin C?
Vitamin C significantly increases the bioavailability of iron by helping to convert it into a more easily absorbed form. Even small amounts of vitamin C can increase iron absorption by up to 400%. Vitamin C also supports the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress.
Is the iron powder vegan?
No, because it contains lactoferrin, which is derived from milk. However, it is vegetarian and contains no animal ingredients other than milk protein.
