Ferrous Glycinate

What is ferrous glycinate?
Ferrous glycinate is a new type of nutritional iron supplement. Ferrous glycinate is a chelating compound with a cyclic structure formed by ferrous and glycine. Ferrous glycine has high bioavailability and good stability.
Ferrous glycinate does not exist in the form of free Fe2+and does not cause gastrointestinal irritation. Ferrous glycine has good palatability and no iron taste. Adding it to food will not cause the food to change color or taste.

1. Health field:
Ferrous glycine can promote the absorption of elements such as calcium, zinc, and selenium, and plays an important role in the digestive tract.
2. Health products:
Ferrous glycinate, as a high-quality source of iron, is widely used in tablets, capsules, oral liquids, etc., making it convenient for daily consumption and supplementation.
3. Food:
Ferrous glycinate can be added to dairy products, meat products, baked goods, pasta, seasoning foods, etc. as an iron nutrient enhancer to increase the iron content in food.
4. Cosmetics:
Ferrous glycine can be added to facial cleansers, beauty creams, toners, shampoos, facial mask and other cosmetics to have a certain effect.

1. Iron is the main component of hemoglobin, myoglobin, and various enzymes, playing an important role in human nutrition and immunity.
2. Ferrous glycinate is a new type of nutritional iron supplement with high bioavailability, 95% can be absorbed, does not cause intestinal irritation, and has no iron taste.
The absorption rate of ferrous glycine is about 3-5 times that of ferrous sulfate. Ferrous glycine can also promote the absorption of elements such as calcium, zinc, and selenium.

Q1: What is ferrous glycinate?
A: Ferrous glycinate [(NH2CH2COO) 2Fe] is a pale yellow brown green crystalline powder, which is an iron supplement and chelate that can be used as a source of dietary iron. It is stable in nature, odorless and easily soluble, easily soluble in water, but difficult to dissolve in ethanol.
Q2: What factors should be considered when preparing ferrous glycinate?
A: During the preparation of ferrous glycine, attention should be paid to adjusting the pH value of the solution. Low or high pH values may lead to a decrease in the production of ferrous glycine. When the pH value is too low, glycine reacts with hydrogen ions to form other compounds; When the pH value is too high, ferrous ions will react with hydroxide ions to form ferrous hydroxide precipitates.
Q3: How to choose the appropriate ferrous glycine product?
A: When selecting suitable ferrous glycinate products, it is necessary to consider the purity, content, stability of the product, as well as the reputation and qualifications of the manufacturer. High quality ferrous glycinate products should have high purity and content, good stability, and be able to meet the application needs of different fields. Meanwhile, choosing manufacturers with good reputation and qualifications can ensure the quality and safety of products.
