Product Information
Quest Vitamins Liposomal Iron 15mg Capsules
Quest Liposomal Iron 15mg Capsules provide an advanced delivery system for iron supplementation using liposomal encapsulation technology. Iron is enclosed within a phospholipid bilayer, allowing for significantly improved intestinal absorption, enhanced cellular delivery, and excellent tolerability, even in individuals sensitive to conventional iron forms.
Liposomal delivery bypasses common absorption barriers and gastrointestinal side effects associated with traditional oral iron supplements. It offers clinically supported benefits, including superior haemoglobin response, protection against degradation in the gastrointestinal tract, and improved compliance in long-term use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is liposomal iron better tolerated than conventional iron?
Yes. Clinical studies have shown significantly lower incidence of digestive side effects (e.g., nausea, constipation) with liposomal iron compared to ferrous sulphate and similar oral forms.
How effective is liposomal iron in raising iron levels?
Liposomal iron has demonstrated >50% higher bioavailability and absorption than standard iron salts, with comparable efficacy to IV iron over a 12-week period in some studies.
Who should consider liposomal iron?
It is suitable for those with diagnosed iron deficiency, poor tolerance to standard oral iron, inflammatory bowel conditions, or high iron requirements (e.g., menstruating individuals, athletes, vegetarians).
Is this suitable for long-term use?
Yes. Due to its stability and gentle action, it is suitable for both short-term iron restoration and ongoing maintenance as recommended by a healthcare provider.
