Real world data support Heme iron polypeptide powder for non-pregnant and pregant women
Dietary iron is contained in two forms namely non-heme and heme. While non-heme iron supplements have been conventionally prescribed, they are associated with poor gastrointestinal (GI) tolerability and constipation which is a major therapeutic and compliance limitation [12,13]. GI tolerability of conventional iron supplements is further reduced in pregnant women. Other requirements with conventional non-heme iron supplements like administration only on empty stomach, varying bioavailability of diverse salts, and drug and food interactions further reduce compliance and treatment adherence.
Heme iron, commercially available as heme iron polypeptide (HIP) for oral supplementation represents an approach for iron supplementation with higher bioavailability and gastrointestinal tolerability, and a lower dose requirement.
To our knowledge this is the first real world data from India on the effectiveness and tolerability of oral heme iron polypeptide
(HIP) supplementation in both non-pregnant and pregnant women diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia (IDA).

Heme Iron has superior solubility and absorption qualities while fewer if any gastrointestinal side effects.
Absorption:
There are only two forms of bio-available iron:
Natural heme iron from meat product(iron bound to natural hemoglobin or myoglobin).
Non-heme iron from plants, dairy and syntethic iron supplements(otherwise chemically bonded iron).
1.Heme iron is easily absorbed as a whole structure with high bio-availability.
2. Non-heme iron must be dissolved before uptake. because of low absorption reactive free iron ions remain in the gut.
3. Heme iron uptake is not affected by low acid content in the stomack.
4. Other medications such as antacids and proton pump inhibitors will not affect uptake.
5. No free iron ions are left in the gut. Hemoglobin not absorbed is inert and will not irritate.
6. Heme iron will not cause oxidative stress in the system.
Application:
The product is used as a treatment of iron deficiency. Iron deficiency is a very common worldwide nutritional problem and a common cause of anemia. Pregnant women, young women during their reproductive years, teenagers and children tend to be at the highest risk for iron deficiency.
