Ferrasorb 60c (renamed Advanced Iron Complex)

Ferrasorb 60c (renamed Advanced Iron Complex) by Thorne – Red Blood Cell Support Iron Supplement

Ferrasorb capsules by Thorne, now called Advanced Iron Complex, are an iron supplement that pairs chelated iron with vitamin C and active forms of three B vitamins. This 60-capsule formula combines iron bisglycinate with pyridoxal 5’-phosphate, methylfolate, and methylcobalamin rather than providing iron alone.

Key Ferrasorb 60c (renamed Advanced Iron Complex) Benefits

• Supports healthy red blood cell formation with iron plus B vitamins that contribute to the normal production and maturation of blood cells.
• Provides iron for oxygen transport, helping hemoglobin carry oxygen from the lungs to tissues throughout the body.
• Combines vitamin C with iron and supplies methylated folate and B12 to support complementary steps in normal nutrient metabolism.

How Ferrasorb 60c (renamed Advanced Iron Complex) Works

Red blood cells need both oxygen-carrying material and the nutrients required to build new cells. Iron becomes part of hemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen. Vitamin B6 helps with hemoglobin formation, while folate and B12 work together in pathways that supply building blocks for DNA. Vitamin C supports nonheme iron absorption, complementing the formula’s iron and B vitamins.

Key Functional Ingredients Include:

• Iron (as Ferrochel® Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate): Iron supplies the mineral needed to build hemoglobin, which carries oxygen in red blood cells. It also participates in cellular energy pathways. Here, iron is bound to glycine in a chelate; the nutritional role remains supporting normal iron-dependent functions.
• Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid): Vitamin C helps the body absorb nonheme iron, the type found in plant foods and many supplements. It helps keep iron in a form the intestine can take up. This complements the iron component without replacing assessment of individual iron needs.
• Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxal 5’-Phosphate): Vitamin B6 helps enzymes carry out reactions involved in hemoglobin formation. It also assists the metabolism of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. These roles make it a useful nutritional companion to iron in a red blood cell support formula.
• Folate (as L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate): Folate transfers small chemical building blocks used to make DNA, supporting normal cell division and red blood cell production. L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate also works with vitamin B12 in normal methylation, the transfer of methyl groups that supports many everyday cellular processes.
• Vitamin B12 (as Methylcobalamin): Methylcobalamin helps an enzyme recycle homocysteine into methionine, which the body uses to make proteins and supply methyl groups. B12 also works with folate to keep folate available for DNA-building pathways, supporting the normal production of new cells.

Ferrasorb 60c (renamed Advanced Iron Complex) Is Formulated For

• Adults whose healthcare practitioner has identified a need for supplemental iron.
• Those seeking iron together with vitamin C, folate, B6, and B12 rather than an iron-only formula.
• Adults reviewing iron needs related to a vegetarian diet or menstrual blood loss with their practitioner.

Iron needs vary. Do not use this formula as a substitute for evaluating unexplained fatigue or other symptoms, and avoid extra iron if you have iron overload unless specifically directed by your clinician.
