TopGum Industries Ltd. is launching IronGum, a new line of high-dose iron gummy supplements that overcome major consumer barriers. The vegan gummies utilize the company\u2019s proprietary Gummiceuticals and TopCaps technologies to deliver an iron supplement without the typical unpleasant metallic aftertaste.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"TopGum<\/h2>\n

The global iron deficiency problem<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The new products aim to help address iron deficiency, which affects around 25% of the world\u2019s population according to the World Health Organization. Iron deficiency can cause anaemia, fatigue and weakened immunity. Even as demand for iron supplements rises, options that are both palatable and effective have been limited.<\/p>\n

Prebiotics and microencapsulation mask iron flavour<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Gummiceuticals technology allows for a high dose of iron to be incorporated into a great-tasting, sugar-free gummy using prebiotic fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) fibres as the sweetener. The TopCaps microencapsulation system further masks unpleasant iron flavours while ensuring efficient delivery of the nutrient.<\/p>\n

Formulated for enhanced absorption<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In addition to ferrous fumarate as the iron source, the IronGum products are fortified with vitamins C and B12 to promote absorption. Ferrous fumarate provides a high concentration of elemental iron and tends to cause fewer gastrointestinal side effects compared to other iron forms.<\/p>\n

Clean label and dietary compliance<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The vegan, pectin-based gummies are non-GMO, use natural colours and flavours, and contain no added sugars, artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols. This allows the products to meet a variety of dietary needs and preferences.<\/p>\n

Significant market opportunity <\/strong><\/h2>\n

With rising demand for iron supplementation, the global iron supplement market is projected to reach $518.7 million by 2028 according to Credence Research. TopGum\u2019s technologies position IronGum to potentially \u201crevolutionize the iron supplement experience\u201d according to Chief Product Officer Doron Delouya.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
