Manufacturer Info

Salus Calcium Magnesium supports healthy bones, Floradix Formula herbal supplement supports healthy iron levels, Kindervital supports kids overall health, plus many more! Floradix & Salus believe in providing natural health for the whole family.

What are SalusFlordix and Floravit?
Salustonics are liquid organic plant-based mineral compounds. This state enhances the availability and absorption in the organism. They are in a base of herbal teas, which is slightly digestive bitter tonic teas that enhance absorption, digestive function, as well as colon health. Also available in a base of fruit and vegetable juices to provide anti-oxidants, and other plant nutrients, which enhance mineral absorption in the gut.

Who should take it?
It can be taken by anybody because it is a plant based iron compound which means it is safe. It is very difficult to overdose a plant-based iron as opposed to animal food-based iron that absorbs pretty much indiscriminately.


What is the difference between Floradix and Floravit?
They have slightly different herbal tea combinations as well as the fruit and vegetable juices are slightly differently formulated. One of the main differences is that the Floravit can actually be taken by women during pregnancy and nursing. However,  the Floradix contains various herbs that are not considered safe during pregnancy.


Daily Dosage
It doesn't matter which one you're taking. Children from age 6 months onwards should have approximately 10 mg of iron a day. Adult men, 10 mg a day. Adult women during menstruating age, 18 to 20 mg a day. During pregnancy and nursing, the mother should have at least about 27-30mg a day because the infant requires a lot of iron for its development in terms of increasing blood volume. That same goes for children after birth of course, infants during their young development stage have to drastically increase their body weight daily as well as their blood volume.


What happens when deficiency occurs while pregnant?
The child will have deficiency. That means there will be low birth weight, pre-eclampsia. There could be pre-mature birth, postpartum depression. The child will have developmental problems both physical as well as cognitive. 84% of children with ADHD are found to be iron deficient. We have to make sure that you get enough iron. A liquid soluble formula like the Floradix, Floravit of course will be able to ensure that in a very easy and conveniently absorbable form.


Iron intake - diet vs. supplementation
Iron is essential for hemoglobin formation and for the effective circulation of oxygen throughout the body. Without adequate levels of iron in the blood, one will be left feeling lethargic and tired. Women are more likely to suffer from anemia and low blood-iron because menstruation, pregnancy and breastfeeding tax their iron stores. Vegetarians are at higher risk of developing iron deficiency and so are those who eat little red meat.

However, many people are eating less meat due to the high fat content and fear of mad cow disease. In the case of iron, even dietary intake often is insufficient to supply the body's daily requirements. Iron is not easily absorbed, and there is even less available for absorption if digestion and food breakdown is reduced through stress, poor enzyme production or age. Older people often require a supplement, as their bodies less efficiently absorb nutrients. This makes the need for a high quality iron supplement clear.

Iron absorption -solids vs. liquids
Solid iron tablets first need to be broken down by the body before their iron becomes available for absorption. Tablets are held together with binders and coated with substances to help them keep their shape. Due to the binders, fillers and coating, the body cannot easily get to the nutrients in a tablet. As well, tablets usually use forms of iron that are not well absorbed by the body. Liquid supplements, on the other hand, do not need to be broken down by the body before the active ingredients can be released and absorbed. They are right there for the body to pick out and absorb through the gastric mucous lining, since liquid supplements provide the body with a much larger surface area to volume ratio for easy absorption.

Liquid iron gluconate (Floradix) is one of the most reliable and trusted forms of liquid iron world wide.

Floradix Iron Liquid
The absorption rate of Floradix (liquid iron gluconate) is twenty-five per cent compared solid iron tablets that have an absorption rate of two to ten per cent. Floradix provides maximum absorption by using the most highly absorbable form of iron, iron gluconate. Floradix also contains B vitamins and vitamin C to enhance absorption, herbal extracts to increase digestion, and fruit juices to ensure proper stomach acidity. A twenty milligram dose of Floradix satisfies the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of fifteen milligrams of iron for women of child-bearing age.


Do Calcium and Iron really interfere with the absorption of the other?
Yes. The reason is that they are competing for the same absorption sites in the small intestine. This can be confusing, since both are present in spinach, and other vegetables; however, it must be remembered that they are not present in high amounts in food, so there are probably enough absorption sites to absorb both.

In a supplement however, the doses are high and so the maximum absorption sites are needed by each nutrient. These two minerals can be taken 2 hours apart from each other. If it is Calcium carbonate, it needs to be taken with food to increase its absorption.

However, our calcium tonic does not require that, because it already has good absorption rates. Calcium actually interferes with absorption of many nutrients so it is best taken alone away from other supplements. Best taken at bedtime, because it helps induce sleep.
