PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Chela-fer® by Ascendis Health replenishes iron stores in the body. It is an iron supplement for healthy red blood cell formation and function, assisting with the transport of oxygen throughout the body. It also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Chela-fer® is a chelated iron supplement. It contains the chelated iron salt ferrous bisglycinate chelate.
