What is VEME®?
VEME® is our unique ingredient: Vegan HEME Iron
Heme iron is an iron molecule found in animal meats. It is important because it is 4 times more readily absorbed by the body compared to other iron sources.
To meet the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of 18 milligrams of iron for women, one must consume 1.8 kilograms of beef daily.
Developed by Chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS), VEME® is the world’s first vegan & non-GMO heme. VEME® is extracted from vegetables and thoughtfully designed to be an effective form of iron nutrition for vegans, vegetarians, and any diet alike.
WHY is iron nutrition important?
Iron is needed to make red blood cells, maintain cognitive function and upkeep energy levels. Without sufficient iron nutrition, one risks Iron Deficiency Anaemia (IDA), a condition with low red blood cell count, fatigue & weakness.
WHO is VEME® for?
*This does not constitute medical advice. Please consult your physician before taking VEME®
About 30% of women (15 to 49 years old) & 24% of seniors (≤65 years old) suffer from anaemia, most of which are due to iron deficiency. Taking iron supplements have proven effective in preventing IDA development.*
WHY is VEME® better than other iron sources?
-
Vegan, natural & highly bioavailable iron that is identical to Heme from meat.
-
Easier iron digestion; no more gastrointestinal irritations.
-
No risk of iron overload because the body self-regulates VEME® uptake
