CSIR DEVELOPED · AIIMS VALIDATED
The daily iron habit that's closing India's iron gap.
Developed with CSIR, manufactured at scale by Deccan Healthcare, and validated through a randomised clinical study at AIIMS New Delhi, the Natural Iron Fruit Bar replaces a pill people quit with a bar they actually look forward to — one bar, one program, one state at a time.
The gap
Over 500 million Indians live with iron deficiency anaemia. Most solutions ask them to swallow a pill they'll quit within weeks.
Anaemia shows up quietly at first, then everywhere: in energy, in concentration, in how a child does at school. It disproportionately affects women, adolescent girls, and children across India, and the default fix, an iron tablet, is where most interventions stall.
Stomach discomfort and constipation are common enough that compliance collapses long before haemoglobin has a chance to recover. The problem was never awareness. It's a format people will actually keep taking, day after day, without being reminded.
- Fatigue and low energy
- Pale skin and nail beds
- Dizziness and headaches
- Heart palpitations
- Brittle, ridged nails
- Reduced concentration and memory
