Quick Facts

Who Pure Lab Carbonyl Iron Is For

• Adults and adolescents 13 to 18 who need an iron supplement to help prevent deficiency
• People supporting red blood cell formation and function
• Vegans and vegetarians who want a non-heme iron with no animal-sourced ingredients
• Anyone who wants iron and vitamin C together in one capsule
• People who have had trouble with other iron supplements and want a formula designed to minimize side effects

Who this product is NOT for:

• Children under 13 — the label gives doses for adolescents 13 to 18 and adults only
• Anyone diagnosed with iron-deficiency anemia who hasn't discussed iron intake with a health care practitioner
• People who want a heme (blood-sourced) iron — carbonyl iron is non-heme

Vitamart's Take

Carbonyl Iron is a straightforward, vegan iron supplement: 22.5 mg of carbonyl iron with 100 mg of vitamin C to help absorption, in a plain Vegi-Cap with no added sugar or artificial colours. Pure Lab designed it to minimize the side effects people often get with other iron supplements, while being honest that some people may still feel nausea or constipation at higher doses — so start with one capsule and follow your practitioner's advice. Take it on an empty stomach and away from calcium for the best results.

How Pure Lab Carbonyl Iron Compares

Carbonyl iron vs. iron salts

Carbonyl iron is metallic iron rather than an iron salt such as ferrous sulfate. Pure Lab formulated this product to minimize the chance of side effects commonly experienced with other iron supplements.

Non-heme vs. heme iron

Heme iron is blood-sourced. Carbonyl iron is a non-heme iron that comes from mineral deposits, which is why this product is vegan.

Iron with vitamin C vs. iron alone

Iron absorption is improved when iron is accompanied by an acid. Each capsule includes 100 mg of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) for this reason, so you don't need a separate vitamin C tablet with your dose.
