NovaFerrum liquid iron is naturally sweetened and does not contain the extras you see in many liquid iron supplements. Our product is free of sugar, alcohol, dye, lactose, soy, and gluten. Unlike most liquid iron supplements that use iron salts, our patent-pending formula uses a Polysaccharide-Iron Complex. NovaFerrum has a Ògreat tastingÓ raspberry-grape flavor and does not have the unpleasant metallic aftertaste you find in most other iron liquid iron supplements.
