Solgar® Hematinic Formula is a special formula containing several vitamins and minerals to support the formation of red blood cells and the circulatory system.

8% of the human body is made up by blood, with 2 million red blood cells produced per second. Blood is the primary means of transport in the body, being responsible for transporting nutrients and minerals to and from cells. It also protects the body from infections and bacteria, as well as regulating factors as body temperature, the level of water and salt, and maintaining pH balance.

The special Solgar® Hematinic Formula is a combination of vitamins and minerals which all support the formation of red blood cells and the circulatory system. This potent product contains iron, liver, vitamin B12, folic acid and vitamin C.

Liver is naturally very high in nutrients such as iron, vitamin A, vitamin B and magnesium. It comes in a desiccated and defatted form for this formula.

Vitamin C is an essential, water-soluble vitamin that is only stored in the body in small amounts. This vitamin helps fight free radicals. Free radicals can lead to oxidative stress and the premature aging of cells. Vitamin C also helps maintain a healthy immune system and has multiple benefits to help to reach optimal health

Iron is a key mineral and essential nutrient, required by the body for many different biological functions. Getting enough iron has been shown to reduce tiredness and fatigue and support healthy energy levels. Iron also helps carry oxygen around the body to our active cells and tissues. The unique form of chelated iron (iron bisglycinate) is formulated for enhanced absorption and is gentle on your system.

Beyond energy support, vitamin B12 has several health benefits supporting general wellbeing and vitality such as supporting the immune system, mind balance and the formation of red blood cells.

Folic acid is a high strength B vitamin and contributes to several processes within the body, with the most well-known one its support of maternal tissue growth during pregnancy. It helps normal blood formation and regulates healthy homocysteine levels and contributes to energy levels and general wellbeing.

It is our aim to offer a fast and reliable delivery service, using the method specified in the checkout procedure. The cost of your delivery is automatically calculated depending on the total value of your order. Any order £30 and above is free of charge.

We will endeavour to despatch all orders within 24 hours. If some or all items are unavailable, then we will contact you before shipping.

It is always best to allow up to seven working days for delivery but unfortunately this can sometimes take longer and we cannot guarantee delivery dates for overseas delivery dates as they are sometimes subject to customs clearance in the destination country due to the quality of postal services from country to country.

Other Important Information

Where it is not possible for Royal Mail to deliver your order, it will be held at your local Royal Mail office for 5 days before being returned to us. To contact your local sorting office to arrange re-delivery or collection, please call 08457 740 740 in the UK.

We would advise that you check your local sorting office before contacting us if delivery has taken more than seven working days in the UK and Overseas, although overseas customers may have to wait up to two weeks.

If your order has been 'lost in the post’, it will only be investigated 17 working days after it was shipped because it is only after this period that the Royal Mail regards postage as officially lost.

European customers should note that in some rare occasions parcels do appear to take longer than usual to arrive and in such occasions it may be necessary to wait longer before further action is taken. This is largely because of the varied quality of postal services throughout Eurozone countries.

After the post office has completed its investigations, it will subsequently refund Elixir for the value of the parcel and postage and package. Upon receiving our costs from the post office your replacement parcel will then be re-sent, or your costs reimbursed if the product is no longer required. Customers are therefore advised to request signed for deliveries to ensure full tracking opportunities.

Depending upon the weight of your consignment we will inform you of the price separately.

For deliveries within England, Scotland and the Channel Islands our charges are as follows:

Overseas Deliveries

We are delighted to be able to offer international once again however there are still certain items that we can no longer send to certain countries.  If this is the case for your order we ill notify you and a full refund will be given.

Every order we send is despatched either first class Royal Mail, or if the parcel exceeds 1kg, at our discretion, send the goods by parcel post, which can take a few days longer to reach you. On any recorded delivery, a signature may be required on delivery. In the case of recorded deliveries which fail to be delivered an acknowledgement card will be left stating the time and place for you to collect. International orders will take a little longer.

Please Note: If orders weigh more than two kilos we will often send packages in two separate boxes in the interests of security and safety.

As an online retailer, we are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our delivery schedule is governed by the Post Office who are open six days a week from 9.00am - 5.00pm. Please also consider Public Holiday closing.
