Can You Take Iron and Jabuticaba Together?

May affect absorption

The short answer

Jabuticaba is extremely rich in anthocyanins and ellagitannins, polyphenols that strongly chelate iron and significantly reduce non-heme iron absorption.

How to arrange timing

Separate Jabuticaba and iron supplements by at least 2 hours.

Important context

Whether supplements suit you together also depends on dose, product formulation, health conditions, and medication use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a chronic condition.
