No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study aims at assessing the iron (Fe) bioavailability from a newly developed iron compound - an iron fatty acid complex. The iron from the compound is hypothesized to have a higher absorption rate than commonly available supplements in the market. The study is a cross over, human iron isotope study with three arms where participants consume the experimental dietary products in a randomized fashion. The study duration is of 45 days - from the day of the capsule administration till the last blood sampling point

Conditions

  • Iron-deficiency

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

IFAC

This intervention will contain the iron fatty acid complex in a capsule. The complex will be labelled with the iron isotope 58Fe

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

MIFAC

This intervention will contain the micellarized form of the iron fatty acid complex in a capsule. The complex will be labelled with the iron isotope with 57Fe

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Control Ferrous Sulfate

This intervention will contain ferrous sulfate in the form of a solution labelled with the iron isotope 54Fe. A capsule with the same amount of fat as in the other arms will be administered to the participants
