Can You Take Iron and Rosehip Extract Together?

May affect absorption

The short answer

Rosehip Extract contains polyphenolic compounds including flavonoids and phenolic acids that chelate iron. Although it also contains Vitamin C which enhances iron absorption, the polyphenol content may predominate at supplemental doses.

How to arrange timing

Separate Rosehip Extract and iron supplements by at least 2 hours if using concentrated extracts.
