Clinical data shows that Ferric Glycinate is a well-absorbed form of iron in both adults and children. Researchers found that electrochemical neutrality, charge balance, and low solubility give Taste-Free Fe stability and sensory quality advantages.
Managing the organoleptic profile is key to successfully creating applications to help close nutrient gaps. Iron deficiency is a major global challenge, and Balchem has solutions to address it. Taste-Free Fe has been shown to be an effective way to treat and prevent iron deficiency anemia due to its bioavailability and safety. Taste-Free Fe is a great choice for iron in supplements and food products that require a palatable form of iron. It is also beneficial for sugar-based foods and beverages, as it does not react with other ingredients like other forms of iron.
