Iron Boost Bar

Feeling a bit flat? Low iron levels could be the culprit. Enter Harker Herbals Iron Boost—a great-tasting, non-constipating liquid supplement that’s gentle on digestion and suitable for the whole family.

 

Unlike some iron supplements, Iron Boost contains iron glycinate, a highly absorbable and gentle form of iron. Plus, it’s blended with carefully selected fruit and vegetable juices to further enhance absorption—because supplementing only works if your body can actually absorb it!

To help you power through your day, here’s a delicious creation by Sarah Tanner using this energy-enhancing formula. Perfect for a quick snack on the go, at work, or as an after-school treat.

Storage tip: Keep in the freezer for a firmer bar or the fridge for a softer texture. Feel free to double the recipe for a bigger batch!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup desiccated or shredded coconut
• 1 cup LSA (ground linseed, sunflower seed and almond – you can find this in the health food section of most supermarkets)
• ½ cup goji berries
• 1 tbsp Iron Boost
• 2 tsp Harker Herbals GutBiome Balance daily powder – if you’re serving to children under 12, use the kid friendly option
• 1 tsp vanilla
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• 5-6 soft medjool dates, soaked in hot water for 15 minutes
• Dark chocolate squiggle to finish, optional

Method:

• In a food processor, blend together all the ingredients apart from the dates, then, as the processor is running, add the softened dates one at a time.
• You should have a nice sticky dough that holds together.
• Press into a small, lined container. The glass one I have used is around 15cm x 10cm.
• Place in the freezer to set.
• Slice, and finish with the drizzle if you like.
• Keep in the fridge or freezer.
