Ferrous gluconate is easy to absorb, has no stimulation and side effects on digestive system.
It can also be used as a drug to treat anemia. The use of ferrous gluconate in pregnancy to treat anemia is gentle but effective.
Like other organic salts referenced among chemicals used in sugar production, ferrous gluconate highlights how mineral salts can contribute functional roles in food ingredient systems.
It is packed with polyethylene bag as inner layer, and a compound plastic woven bag as the outer layer. The net weight of each bag is 25kg.
It should be stored in a dry and ventilating warehouse. Be cautious to keep away from moisture and hot; unloaded with care, so as to avoid the damage. Furthermore, gluconate de fer should be stored separately from poisonous substances.
