Following the current information in the mass media about the recently conducted research, in cooperation with the state scientific institute “BIOR”, gynecologists and midwives, it has been revealed that ¼ of pregnant women in Latvia have low iron levels. We assume that the rest of society would have similar results.
Why? Here are our thoughts.
Low iron levels can have a variety of causes, two of the most important and easily preventable are:
Insufficient iron content in food.
The products used in food contain substances that interfere with the absorption of iron in the body.
First, the diet consumes too few foods with a high iron content, such as red meat, beef offal, fish, eggs, plant-based foods such as soybeans, cashews, sesame seeds, and spirulina.
Second, even when using products with a high iron content, one must be careful with products containing specific substances. Such substances as caffeine, oxalates and phytic acids. These ones interfere with iron absorption and are found in products such as coffee, black and green tea, chocolate, beans, nuts, whole grains, rice, oatmeal, spinach, rhubarb, etc. This does not mean that these products should not be used, but taking them together with iron-containing products can reduce the absorption of iron. To improve iron absorption, it is important to include vitamin C in the diet, such as sauerkraut.
Fresh Spirulina for boosting iron levels
Fresh spirulina contains 2 mg of iron per serving, which is 18% of the daily value. In addition, among plant products, spirulina is one of the rare food 
products with a high absorption capacity of iron in the human body, because it does not contain substances that interfere with the absorption of iron.
The complex of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals in Spirulina, including the unique phycocyanin, as well as the familiar chlorophyll, carotenes, vitamins C and E, all B vitamins and heme iron, provides a complete package of natural nutrients with high absorbability.
SpirulinaNord has found a way to keep spirulina fresh, providing the maximum possible nutrients and guaranteeing the highest absorption of nutrients.
