Ingredients explained
Ox bile powder (standardised to minimum 45% cholic acid)
Bile acids emulsify dietary fats to form micelles, which may aid fat digestion and the absorption of fat-soluble nutrients in the small intestine.
Caution: Not suitable for those with gallbladder removal complications or bile duct obstruction, as added bile acids may cause digestive discomfort; take with food to reduce gastrointestinal upset.
Iron (from Ferrochel ferrous bisglycinate chelate)
Iron is a component of haem proteins and enzymes, supporting oxygen transport and cellular energy production.
Caution: Take away from high-calcium supplements or large amounts of tea or coffee, as these may reduce absorption; may cause mild stomach upset in some people if taken on an empty stomach.
How they work together
Bile acids may enhance the intestinal absorption of fat-soluble nutrients, while chelated iron provides a bioavailable form of this mineral. Together they provide digestive support alongside gentle iron intake for daily nutritional needs.

Overview
- Digestive Support
- 90 mg Per Capsule
- Standardised
- Dietary Supplement
- Promotes Healthy Digestion
- Supports Iron Absorption, Needed By Your Body To Transport Oxygen
- Science-Backed Quality Since 1969
Bile has had a long and integral history in the folk traditions of the world due to its role in digestion of fats and liver protection. In order for the body to be able to digest vitamins and minerals, enough bile must be present. Recent studies strongly suggest that bile is important for iron absorption. Adequate iron intake is especially important for the body, as it transports oxygen to our cells and without it we can become depleted. Now Swanson brings you Ox Bile, making the nutrition of iron more bioavailable. Delivers 45% cholic acid, which is the primary human bile acid. Ours is sourced from bovine, which is chemically similar to human bile, so it's easily recognised by and assimilated into our own bodies.
