Folic acid

How important is folic acid for the body?

Folic acid is not just important for our body, it is essential. Since our organism cannot form folic acid itself, we must acquire the vitamin in sufficient amounts via our food.

Why take folic acid before pregnancy?

Physicians recommend that women take folic acid when they want to have children, as a good vitamin intake is critical – especially in early pregnancy – at a time when many women are still unaware of their changed state.

Iron

What do I need to consider when taking iron supplements?

Taken half an hour to an hour before eating, the bioavailability is optimum; eaten with a meal, consumption is more tolerable. Avoid coffee and black or green tea with the simultaneous consumption of the iron preparation. Consume something containing vitamin C as an accompanying drink.

What is L-carnitine good for?

The vitamin-like substance ensures that long-chain fatty acids are transported to the cell’s power stations, called mitochondria, where they are used to produce energy. This can have a positive effect on muscle growth and regeneration.

Where is niacin found?

Niacin is found in many foods. The best sources include lean meat, fish, eggs and offal such as liver. Plant-based foods such as whole grains, legumes, mushrooms and green leafy vegetables also contain vitamin B3, albeit in smaller quantities.

Iron deficiency

How can I improve my iron absorption?

The combination of iron-rich foods – so-called “iron boosters” – can improve iron absorption into the body. Iron boosters are foods that contain vitamin C, vitamin A, fruit acids, lactic acids or sulphur-containing amino acids.

Which foods strengthen the connective tissue?

Foods with sufficient proteins and a high vegetable content. In particular, varieties rich in vitamin C, such as peppers and tomatoes, should be on the menu. Citrus fruits also contain a good amount of this vitamin.

What are tocopherols?

Tocopherols are a group of fat-soluble compounds that act as forms of vitamin E. They act as powerful antioxidants that protect cells from free radical damage. There are four main types of tocopherols: alpha-, beta-, gamma- and delta-tocopherol, with alpha-tocopherol being the most biologically active and common form.

Iron

What food contains a lot of iron?

Red meat and liver are considered particularly good iron suppliers. However, selected plant-based foods also offer a lot of iron, such as legumes, oats, wheat bran, amaranth, quinoa, nuts, seeds and green vegetables. To improve the absorption of plant-based iron, it is recommended to combine them with vitamin C-rich foods.
