An inseparable part of Japanese culture for over 2,000 years, goji has long been used to make vinegar, soy sauce and miso. Koji, which means “fermented grain” in Japanese, comes from starter cultured from rice. As the goji ages and ferments, iron is produced and naturally stored in the goji culture cells. This will provide a pure and nutrient-dense source of iron later on. To prevent oxidative stress that can occur from sudden iron intake, you should use a slow-release, highly bioavailable source of iron. ♦ This slow-release iron has been shown in clinical trials to be absorbed into the bloodstream at a slower and more even rate than commonly used elemental iron supplements. All living organisms require iron to perform a variety of essential functions. Iron helps produce normal red blood cells and plays a key role in energy utilization and neurotransmitter synthesis. It is also a major component of hemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen to provide energy to cells. It is very important to consume adequate amounts of iron. If your iron intake is consistently low, iron deficiency anemia can occur if not carefully monitored. In fact, the latest U.S. Dietary Guidelines list iron as an important nutrient for women of childbearing age. Solgar® Food Fermented Goji Iron contains Ultimine™, a patent-pending slow-release form of iron. Goji fermented iron is made by a natural process where iron is produced in the goji and absorbed and stored by goji cultures. Solgar® Goji uses this food-based fermentation process to provide slow-release iron that is easy on the stomach. ♦Source: 1 unpublished study (n = 16)
