Experimental evidence in the last decades show that iron is a fundamental element for normal development of the immune system. Its deficiency affects the capacity to have an adequate immune response. The role of iron in immunity is necessary for immune cells proliferation and maturation , particularly lymphocytes, associated with the generation of a specific response to infection. The body has the capacity to reduce the iron availability to be consumed by infectious elements by proteins such as transferrin and lactoferrin. Also, iron is essential for the proliferation of bacteria, parasites, and neoplastic cells . 

Thus excess iron could potentially facilitate the development of infections and the invasion of tumoral cells. The immune system has bacteriostatic mechanisms that reduce the availability of the metal, interfering with bacterial growth. Additionally the system uses iron as the intermediary in the production of bacteriostatic cells. The influence of iron on immune function has been long appreciated . However, the molecular basis for this interaction is less well understood. Recently, there have been several important advances that have shed light on the mechanisms that regulate mammalian iron metabolism. The new insights provide a conceptual framework for understanding and manipulating the cross-talk between iron homeostasis and the immune system.

It is clear from the both iron deficiency and iron excess can influence the functioning of the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system . Iron can also have direct effects on the growth and virulence of microbial pathogens . Indeed , an important component of innate anti-microbial defense is based on depriving pathogens of this nutrient . Changes in iron status can thus affect the immune response in multiple ways, particularly in the context of infection, an idea that is worth remembering when considering the value of iron supplementation in areas of the world where infections such as malaria and tuberculosis are highly prevalent. Conversely , chronic immune activation can lead to alterations in iron homeostasis that may impair erythropoiesis and contribute to immunopathology .

Iron supplements help you achieve your daily iron needs to support your immune system . Active Iron works in tune with your body, it targets the natural site of absorption and delivers the right amount of iron, all while helping to reduce gut irritation from iron .
