TopGum unveils iron-rich gummies at Vitafoods 2024


TopGum Industries Ltd. launched IronGum, a high-dose iron gummy that offers a palatable alternative to traditional iron supplements. These vegan gummies have no metallic taste and a smooth texture, making them an easy-to-swallow option. IronGum debuted them at Vitafoods Europe 2024 in Geneva. Iron is crucial for producing healthy red blood cells and transporting oxygen throughout the body. However, according to the WHO, about 2 billion people worldwide are iron-deficient, leading to conditions like anaemia, fatigue, and weakened immunity. Traditional iron supplements


often face issues such as unpleasant taste, large tablet size, and side effects, which hinder compliance. IronGum addresses these challenges by offering a tasty and effective solution. According to Credence Research, the global iron supplement


market is projected to reach USD 518.7 million by 2028, driven by increasing demand and dietary trends like flexitarianism. IronGum utilises TopGum’s proprietary Gummiceuticals™ and TopCaps™ technologies to deliver a high-dose iron supplement without the metallic aftertaste. The Gummiceuticals™ technology produces great-tasting, sugar-free gummies, while the TopCaps™ microencapsulation system masks unpleasant flavours and enhances nutrient delivery. Fructo- oligosaccharide (FOS) fibres, used in the formula, are natural prebiotics that aid digestion and nutrient absorption.
