Barbara's Testimonial
When Barbara was young she was always iron deficient. Always taking iron supplements even though she was eating a very nutritional diet. After much research, she realised there was nothing wrong with her diet, rather that her hydrochloric acid in her stomach and digestion was not able to extract her iron and other nutrients from the food for the body to utilise. So, she developed this blend of herbs that would stimulate and assist her body and doing just that. Barbara has never needed to take on supplements since.
