ETHNOBOTANICAL/TRADITIONAL

Shilajit, a rare exude used in Ayurvedic medicine, is known traditionally as “The Destroyer of Weakness and "the Conqueror of Mountains” and it has earned the reputation as a pro sexual tonic. Shilajit has been used as a male sexual tonic, but has proven suitable for both men and women. According to Indian folklore, Shilajit makes the body as “strong as a rock.” Shilajit is a powerful tonic, or rasayana, with adaptogenic benefits. Shilajit was never intended to target or be of specific interest to men, but centuries of use and decades of scientific research makes Shilajit particularly interesting for male reproductive and sexual health. In Ayurveda tradition, Shilajit is used as a remedy for almost any illness or condition that can affect the human body. It is said to enhance the benefits of other herbal remedies as well.

How it works

Iron is involved in numerous physiological processes in the body. Most importantly, it maintains energy levels, supports healthy red blood cell production and helps with the formation of haemoglobin.

Iron for energy

Iron is important for maintaining energy levels in the body. It does this through helping with the formation of haemoglobin; a component of red blood cells that transports oxygen around the body so it can be used by the cells to produce energy. Iron also helps the body to make healthy red blood cells.

Who needs more iron?

Women have a greater need for iron than men, and according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, up to 40% of women and teenage girls aged 14-50 years are not consuming enough iron.¹Other people who may need more iron than others include vegetarians and menstruating women in the days following their period.

Where is iron found?

Iron in your diet can be found in animal-derived foods (red meat, chicken, fish, eggs), green vegetables (broccoli, spinach), nuts, seeds, lentils, beans and grains (whole wheat, brown rice). You might benefit from taking an additional iron supplement to prevent iron deficiency if you aren’t consuming these foods in sufficient quantities.

Gentle on the stomach, absorbable iron

Fusion Iron Advanced contains iron glycinate (also known as iron bisglycinate or iron (II) glycinate), which is more readily absorbed than some other forms of iron, such as iron sulfate. It also includes vitamin C, which helps increase the absorption of dietary iron.

Iron glycinate is gentle on the digestive system and is a generally well-tolerated form of iron.
