The athlete's iron problem

Training spends your iron. Then it blocks the refill.

In 2003, researchers had trained triathletes run hard for an hour, then ride hard for an hour at the same effort. Running broke down more red blood cells than cycling did. The difference was the pounding of foot strikes.

Red blood cells are where most of your body's iron is stored. Training also costs a little iron in sweat, and for many women, more every month.

Then comes the second hit. In 2022, nutrition researchers measured how much iron trained runners absorbed from a meal after a long run. They took in 36% less than on a rest day. A hormone called hepcidin was up 51%, and it stays high for about 3 to 6 hours after exercise.

So if training drains your iron and then slows the refill, where is your iron coming from?

Run vs. ride
Same effort, same hour. Running broke down more red blood cells.

The study pinned the difference on foot strike.

  • 2
    Plant-based eatersThe iron in plants is harder for the body to absorb than the iron in meat.
  • 3
    Women who menstruateMonthly blood loss means more iron to replace, on top of training.

What iron does

The mineral behind every breath you train on.

Red blood cells

Iron is part of hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from your lungs to your muscles.*

Energy

Supports normal energy and helps reduce tiredness when iron runs low.*

Performance

Healthy iron levels support endurance and oxygen delivery during training.*

Gut-friendly

Acacia fiber is a prebiotic that feeds the good bacteria in your gut.*

Inside every capsule

Two ingredients. Nothing to hide behind.

Athlete's Iron keeps it short: one well-studied form of iron, one prebiotic fiber, and a plant-based capsule.

The iron
18 mg

Albion® Ferrochel™

Ferrous bisglycinate chelate: iron bonded to the amino acid glycine. Chelated iron like this is known for being easier on the stomach than common iron salts such as ferrous sulfate.*

The prebiotic
100 mg

Organic acacia gum

A soluble plant fiber from the acacia tree. Moxi calls it the Moxi-Prebiotic, added to support gut health.*

The rest
2

Capsule basics

Questions

Good to know

Who is Athlete's Iron for?

Moxi designed it for athletes and active people who lose more iron than they take in: runners, plant-based eaters, women who menstruate, and anyone whose diet comes up short on iron.

Will it upset my stomach?

It uses Albion's Ferrochel™ chelate, a form known for being easier on the stomach than common iron salts like ferrous sulfate. Everyone is different, so take it with water or a light snack if you're sensitive.

How do I know if my iron is low?

Only a blood test can tell you. If you're often tired or your training feels harder than it should, ask your doctor about checking your iron levels.

Can I take it with Complete Essentials?

Complete Essentials also has 18 mg of iron per packet. Together that's 36 mg, which is under the 45 mg daily upper limit for adults set by the NIH. Check with your healthcare practitioner before combining iron sources.

Is it vegan?

Yes. The capsule is vegetable cellulose and there are no animal ingredients. It's also non-GMO.

I'm pregnant, nursing or take medication. Can I use it?

Check with your healthcare practitioner first. Iron can interact with some medications, and needs change during pregnancy.
