Feméa Heme Iron Bar

Discover our innovative iron bar - a premium bar enriched with heme iron, made with honey and cocoa, and coated in light chocolate with no added sugar. One bar provides as much iron as approximately 500 g of red meat.

Trust us - this is one you’ll want to try. Gluten-free and made with carefully selected ingredients. Not intended for children due to its high iron content.

✅ With natural heme iron – a gentle source of iron
✅ Gluten-free
✅ High organic content
✅ Convenient for everyday life
✅ Developed with support from iron research

Origin of the hemoglobin powder: the Netherlands. Why? There is currently no Swedish production of food-grade hemoglobin powder.

Our specialist producer is a world leader in innovative, renewable raw materials from the meat industry, focusing exclusively on recovering nutrients from by-products that would otherwise go to waste.

There is no dedicated organic production, so the animals may come from all types of farms, provided that each animal meets the required health standards.

The hemoglobin powder then undergoes thorough testing for pathogens, heavy metals, pesticides and other parameters. It is also guaranteed to be free from hormones and antibiotics.

Because the raw material (blood) is sterile when handled correctly, the resulting hemoglobin is also very pure. It is one of the few animal-derived raw materials whose quality is not automatically improved by organic production.

Nevertheless, we firmly support good animal welfare (we are not fans of the conventional meat industry) and hope to see dedicated organic production in Sweden in the future.

A perfect snack for those with increased iron needs. Ideal for moments when you want something easy, quick, and enjoyable - without compromising a health-conscious choice.

One bar provides the same amount of iron as approximately 500 grams of red meat. Not intended for children due to its high iron content. It is important to maintain a balanced and varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. Contains sugars* and sweetener**. The sweetener is present only in the thin coating of light chocolate in which the bar is dipped.

* From honey

** Maltitol, a sugar alcohol that - similar to xylitol, has in more recent studies been shown to increase levels of beneficial gut bacteria in humans (Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus), thereby contributing to a healthier gut microbiota. [1]

Origin of the hemoglobin powder: The Netherlands

Our hemoglobin powder is produced in the Netherlands by the only manufacturer of its kind within the EU capable of producing hemoglobin powder of this quality from cattle. Our specialized producer is a global leader in innovative and renewable raw materials derived from the meat industry and works exclusively with recovering valuable nutrients from by-products that would otherwise go to waste.

There is currently no niche organic production of this raw material. The cattle may come from different types of farms, provided that all quality and safety requirements are met.

The hemoglobin powder is rigorously tested for pathogens, pesticides, heavy metals, antibiotics, hormones, and other contaminants, and complies with one of the EU’s strictest regulatory frameworks for food production. Because the raw material, blood, when handled correctly, is essentially sterile, the final product is exceptionally pure. It is one of very few animal-based raw materials, possibly the only one, where organic production does not result in a higher-quality end product.

That said, we naturally support high standards of animal welfare and hope to see dedicated organic production become possible in the future.
