Herbalist tips: Take your dose with a snack or meal that includes Vitamin C such as kiwifruit, citrus fruits, broccoli or tomatoes. Vitamin C helps iron absorption. Best to avoid coffee, caffeinated drinks and foods high in calcium such as dairy products for at least an hour after taking Iron Tonic – these are iron inhibitors. Phytates in raw beans, seeds and grains as well as raw legumes such as chickpeas can also inhibit iron absorption. Cook these ones before eating. Monitor your iron levels closely if you’re following a vegan diet or getting all your iron from plants – it’s more difficult for your body to absorb iron solely from plant sources.
This is an original Malcolm Harker tonic. Malcolm recommended taking this tonic straight, or added to 50ml of boiled water as a tea avoiding mucus forming foods such as gluten, egg-white, chocolate, dairy, polyunsaturated oils and regular table salt adopting gluten-free grain foods, whole foods (greens, fruits nuts, seeds), unprocessed coconut oil and Celtic & NZ Sea Salt with Kelp. With all his tonics, Malcolm also recommended using Intestinal Cleanse for 1-2 weeks to reduce parasite populations. By reducing the load on the body of parasites, the body is able to use nutrients from food and the active ingredients in his tonics more efficiently.
