Serum iron analysis of adults receiving three different iron compounds

چکیده
Iron deficiency is one of the most prevalent nutritional problems in the world. Iron compounds are sed for the prevention and treatment of this deficiency. A double-blind randomized crossover study ith 12 volunteers was carried out to compare the effect of three iron compounds, ferrous glycine helate (GLY), ferric EDTA (EDTA), and ferrous sulfate (FS) on serum iron, and to examine serial erum iron levels. The products were offered as tablets, and blood samples were drawn hourly for 4 ours. FS produced higher serum iron levels than EDTA or GLY (P 0.05). Data for GLY and EDTA ere similar. The areas under the curve (AUC) for serum iron for the different compounds gave UCFS AUCGLY AUCEDTA (P 0.05). Iron from FS had a significantly greater bioavailability han for the other two compounds. © 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
