Description

Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C is a daily iron supplement built for athletes and active people whose training puts extra demand on their iron stores. It pairs 23mg of elemental iron from Ferrochel, a highly bioavailable iron bisglycinate chelate, with 80mg of vitamin C to help your body absorb and use it.

Iron is essential for forming haemoglobin and carrying oxygen to working muscles, and low iron is a common reason endurance athletes feel flat and tired. The Ferrochel form is well absorbed and much gentler on the stomach than traditional iron, so it's less likely to cause the nausea or constipation that puts people off iron tablets. It's Informed Sport certified and free from gluten, dairy, nuts, eggs and soy.

Key Benefits

  • 23mg elemental iron from gentle Ferrochel bisglycinate
  • 80mg vitamin C to support iron absorption
  • One film-coated tablet per day
  • Informed Sport certified
  • Free from gluten, dairy, nuts, eggs and soy

Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C is a Health & Wellness supplement built for New Zealanders whose training or diet is outpacing their iron stores, or who lose more than most with each monthly cycle. Each of the 30 servings in this tub delivers 23mg of elemental iron from Ferrochel iron glycinate alongside 80mg of vitamin C, so you get a measured, repeatable dose rather than a guess. It suits active adults and endurance athletes, as well as anyone whose GP has flagged low iron as something to address through diet and supplementation.

How Pillar Performance Health & Wellness works

Iron is the mineral your red blood cells use to build haemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen from your lungs to working muscle. When iron runs low, oxygen delivery becomes the bottleneck long before your lungs or heart do, which is why flat training sessions and heavy legs on the stairs are often the first sign something is off. Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C uses Ferrochel, a chelated bisglycinate form of iron, because the mineral is bound to an amino acid rather than left as a free salt, which tends to sit more comfortably in the gut.

Vitamin C plays a supporting role here rather than a standalone one. Ascorbic acid converts dietary and supplemental iron into a form your intestinal lining absorbs more readily, which is why the two are paired in the same tablet instead of sold separately. At 80mg per serve, the vitamin C dose in Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C is sized specifically to work alongside the 85.1mg of iron glycinate, not as a general immune add-on.

Why choose Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C (30 Serves)

Iron supplements have a reputation for causing stomach upset, and that reputation is usually earned by cheaper, unchelated forms. Pillar Performance built this formula around a gentler delivery method without diluting the dose, and the numbers back that intent up.

  • 85.1mg of Ferrochel iron glycinate per tablet, providing 23mg of elemental iron
  • 80mg ascorbic acid included specifically to support that iron's uptake
  • A 30-serve tub, so one tablet a day covers a full month without reordering mid-cycle

For lifters and endurance athletes stacking supplements across a training block, Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C sits comfortably alongside the rest of a wider protocol without adding volume or complexity to your daily routine.

Getting the most from it

Take your one film-coated tablet at the same time each day so it becomes part of a routine rather than an afterthought, and pair it with a meal if you find any supplement sits better on a full stomach. If you're already running a structured plan built around shop all from NZ Supps, whether that's protein for recovery or electrolytes for hydration, iron is worth treating as its own category rather than bolting it onto a pre-workout stack. Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C is designed to be taken consistently over weeks, since iron status shifts slowly, not overnight. If training volume is high or you suspect your levels are low, it's worth checking with your GP before you commit to a long run of any iron product.

Nutrition per serving. Key ingredients: Iron glycinate Ferrochel, Ascorbic acid.

Take 1 tablet daily with water, ideally with food. For best absorption, avoid taking it at the same time as tea, coffee or calcium. If you're unsure whether you need iron, check your levels with your GP before supplementing long term.

Made for runners, cyclists, triathletes and active women who train hard, sweat heavily or spend time at altitude, and anyone supporting healthy iron levels through a demanding training block. Best used when you know or suspect your iron needs topping up. It comes as a small, easy-to-swallow film-coated tablet with no taste and no mixing.

Why Ferrochel instead of regular iron?

Ferrochel is a chelated bisglycinate form that's well absorbed and gentler on the stomach, so it's less likely to cause nausea or constipation.

Why is there vitamin C in it?

Vitamin C helps your body absorb iron, so the two work better together.

Is it safe for tested athletes?

Yes. It's Informed Sport certified and batch-tested for banned substances.

Should everyone take iron?

Not necessarily. Iron is best taken when your levels are low or your training demands are high. Check with your GP if you're unsure.

Can I take Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C with other supplements?

Yes. It's a single daily tablet, so it fits easily alongside your existing training supplements, like protein or a pre-workout, without adding bulk to your routine. If you're on other iron-containing products, avoid doubling up on top of this one.

How long does one tub of Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C last for a Kiwi lifter on a daily dose?

Each tub holds 30 servings at one tablet per day, so it covers a full month of consistent use before you need to reorder, which suits most training blocks.

Is Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C available with fast shipping in New Zealand?

Yes, it ships from NZ Supps within New Zealand alongside the rest of the Pillar Performance Health & Wellness range, so Kiwi customers aren't waiting on international freight for a daily supplement.

Does taking Pillar Performance Iron Advanced + C with food change how it works?

You can take it with a meal if it sits better on your stomach. The 80mg of vitamin C included in the formula is there to support absorption of the 85.1mg Ferrochel iron glycinate regardless of whether it's taken with or without food.

Great product range and quick delivery. I had some questions and they were very quick to respond. Would thoroughly recommend.

Placed an order, core ingredient dropdown boxes make it super easy to check if the product you're looking at has what you want in it, made choices very straight forward. Smooth checkout and fast delivery, spot on! Will now be my go to site in future.

Murdoch Stow

Hated chalk-tasting creatine, so I tried some flavoured creatine for the first time and honestly couldn't even tell there was creatine in my drink.. Unreal. Got it from NZSupps and it arrived the next day, imma be subscribing next time.

Mum knows best!

I bought this product for my 2 x 20year old daughters to try. They have had low iron for a while now and had been taking another well known Iron tablet that was meant to be good on their stomachs. It was not. I discovered they were not taking it and we switched over to Pillar Performance to see if it worked better. They love it! It does not affect their stomachs and they ACTUALLY take it!
