Iron (3.6%) — from Curry Leaf (Murraya koenigii)

With-Meal Capsule: 200–400 mg with food provides ≈7–14 mg iron (3.6% = 36 mg/g). Keep the same mealtime daily for consistency.

Sachet To-Go: Pack 200–400 mg sticks; mix into citrus water or smoothies for a simple, repeatable habit.

Gummies: To deliver ≈5–10 mg iron per 4 g gummy, use ≈140–280 mg powder (≈3.5–7% w/w); pilot flavour/acid balance.

Smoothie Add-In: 200–300 mg into a protein-forward smoothie at lunch for an easy daily stack.

Stack Idea: Pair the serving with vitamin C sources and avoid tea/coffee around the same time; add only one change at a time and track comfort.

Plant-Derived Source: Curry leaf origin suits clean-label builds.

Predictable Dosing: 3.6% assay simplifies mg math across formats.

Format-Friendly: Neutral taste and fine texture work in capsules, gummies, sachets and smoothies.

Clean & Compact: Standardized strength supports tidy formulation without stimulants.

Serving Size: 1 capsule or scoop (≈ 200–400 mg powder)

Ingredients: Iron (3.6%) Extract Powder (from Murraya koenigii leaves)

Does Not Contain: Added sugar, caffeine, artificial colours

Allergen Information: Vegan; gluten-free; dairy-free. Leaf-derived; review if sensitive to Rutaceae-family herbs.

Usage Recommendation: Take 200–400 mg once daily with meals (≈7–14 mg iron). If stacking with other actives, add one change at a time and space ~90 minutes from medications as a routine practice.

Storage Advice: Store cool, dry & dark. Keep tightly sealed away from direct sunlight.

Keep Away From Children

Q: How do I place plant-derived Iron (3.6%) into a simple daily routine?

A: Make it a same-time, with-meal habit and keep every other variable steady. A practical start is 200–400 mg powder with your most reliable meal, giving roughly 7–14 mg iron at a 3.6% assay. Hold the serving for two to four weeks before adjusting, and log adherence rather than chasing higher totals. If you’re exploring food pairing, include vitamin-C-rich foods in that meal and avoid tea or coffee near the serving. Consistency beats tinkering, and one change at a time makes it easier to understand what actually helps your routine.

Q: What’s the practical difference between curry-leaf iron and common mineral salts for formulation?

A: This ingredient supplies standardized iron within a botanical leaf matrix from Murraya koenigii, which many formulators prefer for clean-label positioning and a familiar source story. Conventional salts (e.g., ferrous fumarate) deliver higher potency per gram but can bring taste or color challenges. Choose by build and audience: capsules favor compact precision, while gummies and sachets favor ease and habit sticking. Whatever you pick, lock timing with meals, pilot small batches for flavor and uniformity, and avoid frequent product switches that blur evaluation and complicate SOPs during scale-up.

Q: How do I set gummy strength without overcomplicating the formula?

A: Decide the per-gummy iron target first—say 5 or 10 mg—then back-calculate powder using 3.6% (36 mg iron per gram). That translates to ≈140 mg or ≈280 mg powder in a 4 g pectin gummy (≈3.5–7% w/w). Keep acids and flavors consistent, disperse thoroughly to avoid hot spots, and document every batch variable. Store cool and dark; heat, moisture and light can affect color and actives. Run a small stability check (taste, color, assay) before scaling, then lock your SOP once pilots meet sensory and uniformity targets you can reproduce.

Q: Can I stack Iron with vitamin C or other minerals without making the plan complicated?

A: Yes—start with one anchor habit first: 200–400 mg Iron 3.6% with a consistent meal. After a week, consider adding vitamin C in the same meal for a simple pairing, while keeping calcium-rich foods or tea/coffee away from that window if you want a cleaner read. Leave ~90 minutes from medications as a general routine practice. Track comfort and adherence in a simple log, and adjust gradually rather than making multiple changes at once; the goal is a routine that fits real days so you can evaluate results clearly over time.
