What is Hemocyte Plus?
Hemocyte Plus is an iron and vitamin supplement used by people concerned about the amount of iron in their blood, such as athletes, pregnant women, seniors, vegetarians, and others. Iron is vital to the transport of oxygen in the bloodstream to the cells in the body.
Hemocyte Plus is sometimes prescribed to patients with iron-deficiency anemia, poor nutrition, or pregnancy—any condition involving a shortage of iron in the red blood cells. Hemocyte Plus delivers almost 600% of the daily recommended allowance of iron.
Ferrous fumarate (an iron mineral) is the only active ingredient in Hemocyte Plus. While side effects such as stomach upset and constipation are common with ferrous fumarate, it is very efficiently absorbed and processed by the body. In addition to iron, Hemocyte Plus includes vitamins that are crucial in the body's use of iron, such as vitamin C, vitamin B6, vitamin B9, and vitamin B12, as well as other vitamins and minerals.
What are the side effects of Hemocyte Plus?
Common side effects of Hemocyte Plus include but are not limited to upset stomach, stomach cramps, constipation, diarrhea, or black or bloody stools. Allergic reactions to ferrous fumarate are extremely rare.
Although iron is a naturally occurring and critical part of our diet, overdosing on iron can lead to iron poisoning and even death. Always follow your doctor's instructions or the suggested dosage on the supplement.
