Number 1: Blutfit iron elixir

The Blutfit iron elixir is the most popular Sanct Bernhard product among our customers. It is a fruity drinkable solution with iron(II) gluconate, vitamin C and four B vitamins, sweetened with agave syrup and coloured with beetroot powder. According to the manufacturer it is vegan, lactose-free and alcohol-free.

Iron contributes to normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin C increases iron absorption. If you dislike swallowing capsules, you simply measure and drink.

Three myths we often hear

Myth 1
“Iron only matters for people who do not eat meat.”
Fact: Requirements also rise in certain phases of life, for example due to menstruation, during pregnancy, while breastfeeding and during growth.
Myth 2
“Magnesium always has to be swallowed with plenty of water.”
Fact: The Magnesium 400 Direct sticks dissolve on the tongue without any liquid. The Supra capsules, on the other hand, are taken with liquid at a meal.
Myth 3
“Herbal capsules and vitamins are the same thing.”
Fact: There are assessed EU claims for vitamins and minerals, but not for garlic, mistletoe or hawthorn. That is why we only state amount and tradition for plants.

Good to know when taking supplements

✓
Blutfit before meals
According to the manufacturer, drink once a day before a meal and shake first. Adults 20 to 40 ml, children from 10 years 20 ml, from 7 to 10 years 10 ml.
✓
Magnesium: once a day is enough
Capsule and stick each provide 400 mg. The sticks contain sorbitol, which can have a laxative effect if consumed in excess. The recommendation is 300 mg (women) to 350 mg (men) per day, from all sources combined.
✓
Add up the amounts
If you combine several products, such as Blutfit and the herbal capsules with B vitamins, add up the amounts. The values are on every product page.
✓
Out of the reach of children
This applies to all food supplements, especially iron products. Store Blutfit and the capsules dry and not above room temperature.
