Pharmacist’s advice

A 200 ml serving provides 7 mg of iron. This may support daily intake but may not be sufficient to treat laboratory-confirmed iron-deficiency anaemia.

Check a full blood count and ferritin when iron deficiency is suspected. Anaemia can have causes other than iron deficiency, while iron stores may be reduced before haemoglobin falls.

Vitamin C supports non-haem iron absorption. Consume the juice with citrus fruit, kiwi, peppers or another vitamin C-rich food.

Severe breathlessness, chest pain, fainting, a very rapid heartbeat, visible bleeding or black stools requires urgent medical assessment.
