Heme iron polypeptide is an enzymatic hydrolysate of animal hemoglobin (bovine or porcine) in which the iron remains bound inside the porphyrin heme molecule rather than existing as a free salt or chelate. It is produced by enzymatically digesting hemoglobin into a standardized peptide-bound heme fraction, then assay-standardized to its heme iron content, which is low at roughly 1-2% by weight. As an animal-derived ingredient it is the only non-vegan form in the family; it is gluten-free but not suitable for vegan products. We manufacture it in capsule and tablet formats.
