I created ProbIron because I was tired of being told to "just take iron" when every iron supplement made me feel worse than the deficiency.
After years of heavy periods from PCOS, my ferritin dropped to single digits. I was exhausted, foggy, and dizzy. My doctor prescribed iron, but every form I tried - ferrous sulfate, ferrous fumarate, liquid iron - caused unbearable stomach cramps and constipation. I'd take it for a week, feel miserable, and stop.
It was a vicious cycle: too iron-depleted to function, but unable to tolerate the supplements that were supposed to help. I knew there had to be a better way.
ProbIron uses iron bisglycinate, the most bioavailable and gentle form of iron available. We added targeted probiotics that support both iron absorption and the gut health that traditional iron supplements destroy. And we included vitamin C and methylfolate to maximize absorption and support healthy red blood cell production.
Because you shouldn't have to choose between building your energy and destroying your gut.
