Primabolics Iron Bisglycinate | High Absorption Iron | 18mg Elemental Iron | 120 Capsules
Primabolics Iron Bisglycinate is a single-ingredient, high-absorption iron supplement delivering 100mg of Iron Bisglycinate — equivalent to 18mg of elemental iron — per vegetarian capsule, with zero fillers and zero additives. Iron Bisglycinate is a chelated form of iron in which the iron molecule is bound to two glycine amino acid molecules, a structure that significantly enhances gastrointestinal tolerability and absorption efficiency compared to traditional inorganic iron salts such as ferrous sulphate. Australian owned and manufactured, with complete label transparency.
Why Primabolics Iron Bisglycinate?
- 100mg Iron Bisglycinate | 18mg Elemental Iron Per Capsule: A clinically relevant dose of chelated iron delivering 18mg of bioavailable elemental iron per capsule — aligned with the Australian RDI for adult males and a meaningful contribution toward the higher female RDI.
- Bisglycinate Chelate — High Absorption Form: Iron Bisglycinate is a fully reacted chelate in which iron is bound to two glycine molecules. This chelated structure protects the iron from inhibitory dietary factors and facilitates absorption via a dedicated peptide transport pathway, resulting in superior bioavailability compared to inorganic iron salts.
- Gentle on the Gut: Unlike ferrous sulphate and other inorganic iron forms, Iron Bisglycinate is well-documented for its significantly reduced incidence of gastrointestinal side effects — including nausea, constipation, and stomach discomfort — making it the preferred form for sensitive individuals.
- 120 Capsules — 120 Full Serves: One capsule per serve, providing a generous 120-day supply at the standard daily dose.
- Vegetarian Capsule Shell: Encapsulated in a vegetarian Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) capsule — suitable for vegetarians.
- Zero Energy, Zero Macros: Zero protein, zero carbohydrates, zero fat, zero sugar, and zero sodium per serving.
- Australian Owned & Manufactured: Formulated and produced locally to the highest manufacturing standards, with complete label transparency.
About Iron Bisglycinate
Iron is an essential mineral required for the production of haemoglobin — the protein in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body — as well as myoglobin, a protein that stores oxygen in muscle tissue. Iron also plays a critical role in energy metabolism, immune function, and cognitive performance. Iron Bisglycinate is a chelated mineral compound in which iron is covalently bonded to two molecules of the amino acid glycine, forming a stable ring structure. This chelation protects the iron from forming insoluble complexes with dietary inhibitors such as phytates, tannins, and calcium, and allows it to be absorbed via a separate intestinal transport pathway (PepT1) that bypasses the competitive absorption mechanisms of inorganic iron. As a result, Iron Bisglycinate consistently demonstrates superior bioavailability and significantly better gastrointestinal tolerability compared to ferrous sulphate and other non-chelated iron forms. It is widely used by athletes, active individuals, women of reproductive age, vegetarians, and vegans seeking to support healthy iron status as part of a balanced diet and lifestyle.

Directions for Use
Take 1 capsule daily with water as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. Best taken with food or a source of Vitamin C to support iron absorption. Avoid taking within 2 hours of calcium supplements, antacids, or dairy products.
Allergen & Storage Information
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight below 30°C. Keep out of reach of children.
Warning: This product is not a sole source of nutrition and should be used in conjunction with a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. Not suitable for children under 15 years of age or pregnant or breastfeeding women without medical supervision. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Iron supplementation should only be used where iron deficiency has been identified. If you have a medical condition or are taking prescription medication, consult your healthcare practitioner before use. Keep out of reach of children — accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6 years of age.
