Odorless Sodium Ferric EDTA Powder with good Solubility as Iron absorption enhancers/ Iron source for Liquid Supplements

What is Sodium Ferric EDTA ?

Sodium Ferric EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid ferric sodium salt) is a chelated iron compound, where iron is bound to EDTA, a chelating agent. This complex form of iron enhances iron absorption and increases the bioavailability of iron in the body. Sodium Ferric EDTA is often used in food fortification and liquid supplements because it provides a stable, soluble, and odorless source of iron, helping to combat iron-deficiency anemia without affecting the taste or appearance of the product.

Sodium Ferric EDTA is a highly effective iron source, known for its excellent solubility and odorless properties, making it an ideal ingredient for use in liquid supplements. As a leading ISO22000-certified manufacturer, Joyful Nutritional produces high-quality Sodium Ferric EDTA powder that enhances iron absorption and offers reliable iron supplementation for a wide range of products. This article explores the advantages, applications, and why Joyful Nutritional is the ideal partner for your Sodium Ferric EDTA needs.

At Joyful Nutritional, we ensure that our Sodium Ferric EDTA is produced to the highest standards of quality, ensuring optimal performance in various formulations.

Advantages of EDTA iron sodium as an iron supplement:

1. EDTA iron sodium is a chelated iron nutritional enhancer with no iron smell.

2. Good solubility and high absorption rate, 3-4 times that of ferric pyrophosphate.

3. It is released and absorbed only after reaching the duodenum in the human body, without gastrointestinal irritation.

4. It can avoid the obstruction of iron absorption by phytic acid.

5. It can mask metal ions and promote the rapid excretion of harmful radioactive metals in the body.

6. It can promote the absorption of other iron sources or endogenous iron sources in the diet, and can also promote the absorption of zinc.

7. It does not cause protein polypeptide precipitation and is the preferred iron enhancer for fish sauce and soy sauce

Applications of Sodium Ferric EDTA

1. Liquid Supplements

Sodium Ferric EDTA is particularly effective in liquid supplements, as its good solubility ensures uniform distribution of iron in the formulation. It is widely used in oral liquid supplements, sports drinks, and nutritional beverages, providing an efficient and easy-to-consume source of iron for individuals at risk of iron deficiency.

2. Fortified Foods and Beverages

In addition to liquid supplements, Sodium Ferric EDTA is used in the fortification of various foods and beverages, including juices, protein shakes, and dairy products. Its odorless and neutral flavor ensures that the fortified products retain their original taste while providing consumers with the necessary iron intake.

3. Infant Formula

Sodium Ferric EDTA is also suitable for use in infant formula and pediatric supplements, where it offers a reliable and effective source of iron to support healthy development. Its high bioavailability ensures that infants and children receive the necessary iron for proper growth and cognitive function.

4. Nutritional Bars and Powdered Supplements

Sodium Ferric EDTA can be incorporated into nutritional bars, powdered supplements, and meal replacement products. Its stability ensures that the iron remains bioavailable throughout the product’s shelf life, making it a versatile ingredient for various iron-fortified products.
