Full product details
Support your everyday wellness with our Iron Strips, a convenient way to help maintain normal energy levels and overall vitality. Designed for busy lifestyles, these quick-dissolving, raspberry-flavored oral strips provide key nutrients involved in red blood cell formation in an easy-to-take, water-free format.
Each strip provides 19 mg of Iron, an important mineral that plays a role in the body's normal red blood cell production and oxygen transport. Paired with 400 mcg of Folate, this formula helps support healthy cell formation and general wellness as part of a balanced diet and active lifestyle.*
To use, simply place one oral strip on your tongue and allow it to fully dissolve. Take one strip daily — anytime, anywhere — for a refreshing, berry-flavored addition to your daily health routine.
The iron you'll actually keep taking.
- Dissolves in about 30 seconds — no water needed, anywhere you happen to be
- Ferric saccharate + folate (B9) — an iron-sugar complex chosen to be well-tolerated
- Nothing to swallow — no horse pill to force down on a morning your stomach already hates
- Raspberry-flavored, sugar-free, vegetarian, allergen-free
- One strip a day, 30 to a tin — a month of routine you don't have to think about
The iron you actually keep taking. Less than the coffee you'll skip once you stop dragging through 3pm. About $1/day.
You didn't come here by accident.
Something's been off for a while. You've been telling yourself it's your job, or your age, or your sleep, or your thyroid, or that you're just not eating enough spinach. And your last iron pill made your stomach hurt so badly you stopped after four days.
Here's what I think is happening.
A third of women of reproductive age are iron-deficient. Most don't know because their labs came back "normal" — the WHO threshold is a ferritin of 15 μg/L, but specialists now argue the meaningful cutoff is 50. If yours came back at 22, you're "normal" by the old rule and deficient by the new one. That's the gap most tired women I know are living in.
The other thing the vitamin aisle doesn't tell you: most people who try oral iron report GI side effects, and about half quit within a month. Not because iron is bad — because ferrous sulfate hands your stomach more elemental iron at once than a lot of stomachs are willing to put up with. The form matters. So does whether you can stand taking the thing every single day, which is the part nobody puts on the box.
Here's what I made for that.
Iron Strips are a sublingual film. Iron as ferric saccharate — an iron-sugar complex chosen to be well-tolerated — with 400 mcg of folate, in a strip that dissolves under your tongue in about 30 seconds. One strip, no water, nothing to swallow, no sugar, and both doses printed right on the label.
I built this for the person who has quit every iron supplement she's ever tried — who wants the iron without the pill and the stomach that comes with it.
If the tired you've been apologizing for is chemistry and not character — this is the format built for it.

Strip vs. pill vs. gummy — the honest version.
- Iron pill (ferrous sulfate): cheapest per dose and higher elemental iron on paper — but roughly half the people who start one quit within a month because of nausea or constipation. If your gut tolerates them, they work. Many don't.
- Iron gummy: easier to take than a pill, but typically 2–4 g of added sugar per serving and often lower iron doses. Fine as a bridge; not what I wanted for a daily habit.
- XYNE Iron Strip: ferric saccharate + folate in a strip that dissolves under the tongue in about 30 seconds. No water, nothing to swallow, no sugar. About 40% of adults report trouble swallowing pills — the strip is what I built for that group and for anyone who has quit oral iron before.
- When a pill still wins: if you're being clinically managed for severe iron deficiency and your doctor has prescribed a specific high-dose regimen, follow their protocol. Strips are a daily-wellness format, not a replacement for medical care.
"Will I actually feel this one?"
Iron isn't caffeine. You don't feel it the first day. What you notice, if you keep at it, is what stops happening — the 3pm collapse, the stairs that used to leave you winded, the brain that used to blank mid-sentence. Give it a full 30-day tin before you decide.
"Is 19 mg enough?"
19 mg is 106% of the daily value for adult women and above the RDA for men. It's a daily-wellness dose, not a therapeutic-repletion dose. If your ferritin is genuinely low and your doctor has you on a higher clinical regimen, follow that. If you're the person who's been living in the "labs are normal but I feel awful" gap, this is the format built for you.
"I've been burned by iron supplements before."
Same. That's the whole reason this exists. Ferrous sulfate is a hard form to live with — nausea, constipation, and about half of people quitting inside a month. This one uses ferric saccharate, an iron-sugar complex chosen to be well-tolerated, in a strip you don't have to swallow at all. Iron still affects everyone differently, so if it doesn't sit right with you either, email me and I'll make it right.
Frequently asked questions
What makes a strip different from an iron pill?
There's nothing to swallow. No tablet, no glass of water by the sink — you place the strip on your tongue, it dissolves in about 30 seconds, and it tastes like raspberry instead of metal. There's no sugar in it, and both actives are printed on the label with their doses: 19 mg iron as ferric saccharate, 400 mcg folate. No proprietary blend.
How fast does a XYNE Iron Strip dissolve?
About 30 seconds under the tongue, with no water needed.
Do XYNE Iron Strips cause nausea or constipation like iron pills?
We won't promise you won't get side effects — tolerance to iron varies a lot from person to person, and any iron supplement can upset some stomachs. What we could control was the form: ferric saccharate, an iron-sugar complex chosen to be well-tolerated, rather than the ferrous sulfate a lot of people report trouble with. If you've quit iron before over side effects, start with one strip and see how you do, and talk to your doctor if symptoms persist.
What form of iron is used, and how much?
Each strip delivers 19 mg of iron as ferric saccharate (an iron–sugar complex chosen to be well-tolerated) plus 400 mcg of folate (Vitamin B9). That's 106% of the daily value for iron for adult women — a daily-wellness dose, not a clinical repletion dose.
Can I take Iron Strips on an empty stomach?
There's no tablet to sit heavy, so you don't need to plan a strip around a meal the way people often have to with iron pills. That said, iron affects everyone differently — if you find it doesn't agree with you on an empty stomach, take it with food. Follow the dosing on the label.
Are Iron Strips safe during pregnancy or for kids?
Pregnant or nursing mothers, children under 18, and anyone with a known medical condition should talk to a physician before starting Iron Strips or any dietary supplement. Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6 — keep the tin out of reach of children, and in case of accidental overdose, call a doctor or poison control center immediately.
