You can rest assured.

For us at Mini Ferrum, it's of utmost importance that you feel reassured when purchasing our heme-iron products.

As parents of young children ourselves, we know that we all care deeply about our children's well-being and want what's best for them in every situation. That's why we believe it's important for you, as someone curious, to be able to easily find out everything about the contents of MINI+.

What does MINI+ actually consist of?

Our ingredients, as well as our suppliers, have been carefully selected for their highest possible quality. Hemoglobin powder is the ingredient that makes MINI+ so rich in iron, but what exactly is it, and what else is it used for?

Hemoglobin powder

Hemoglobin powder is produced through a process called micro-granulation. This involves separating the red blood cells from cattle and then spray-drying them with tempered air, which includes a heating process that helps eliminate any potential bacteria. What remains is a fine-grained powder with a long shelf life and high iron content. Hemoglobin powder is already used in several food products on the market today and is mainly found in products such as blood pudding, blood sausage and thin blood bread, but it can also be present in other charcuterie foods.

Our hemoglobin powder, which is sourced from beef, comes from a well-certified producer in the Netherlands that meets the highest possible industry standards. Unfortunately, there is no organic production of hemoglobin powder in Europe. In Sweden, there is no longer any production of hemoglobin powder at all. In an ideal world, we would have preferred a Swedish organic raw material, but since it is not currently available, we have found the absolute best alternative.

Organic gluten-free oats

The main ingredient in MINI+ is an oat flour made from organically grown oats. Oats are already rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, making oat flour particularly suitable for MINI+ as it blends well without imparting any disruptive taste to other foods. Both we and our supplier have analyzed the gluten content in our oat flour to ensure that our product delivers on its promise and is gluten-free.

Blueberries from Northern Sweden

MINI+ also contains blueberry powder, sourced from handpicked blueberries in the forests of northern Sweden. We think blueberries are simply fantastic. In addition to being packed with antioxidants and vitamins, blueberries' health benefits are well-documented. These include anti-inflammatory properties and prebiotic effects, meaning a positive impact on our important gut flora.
