Spatone® Iron-Rich Water comes in easy-to-use, single-serve sachets that you can either add to your favorite drink or take straight from the sachet.

Our Spatone® Apple tastes great on its own and has added Vitamin C. Spatone® Original is ideally taken by mixing it in with fruit juice high in vitamin C to help enhance the taste and to help increase the absorption of iron. We recommend avoiding red grape juice and prune juice as they may inhibit bioavailability.

For the best results, take on an empty stomach in the morning. If you are taking it between meals, it’s best to leave a 30-45 minute gap before eating or drinking. This is because some substances in foods and drinks can reduce your body’s ability to absorb iron. Polyphenols (tannins) and caffeine found in tea and coffee, caseins and calcium in dairy products, phytates in cereals, phosphates in carbonated drinks and supplements such as calcium and zinc all reduce the body’s ability to absorb iron.

For adults and children ages 4+, take one sachet daily. During pregnancy, it’s recommended that women take one sachet twice per day to maintain iron levels.

Do not exceed your recommended dose. Talk to your health care practitioner before using Spatone® if you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medication or have a medical condition.
