In most cases, Crohn&#8217;s disease initially manifests itself with diarrhea and abdominal pain localized especially in the lower right part of the abdomen, which corresponds to the tract of the intestine in which the disease is most frequently located.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ulcerative colitis<\/strong> usually originates in the rectum but can extend continuously and involve the entire colon. It almost always manifests itself with diarrhea and the presence of blood and mucus in the stool, which is often associated with a feeling of incomplete evacuation and anemia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the phases of exacerbation of IBD can appear states of general malaise such as weight loss, fatigue, loss of appetite and fever. The European Crohn&#8217;s and Colitis Organisation (ECCO) has published guidelines, in which is specificated that to counter iron deficiency in patients suffering from these gastrointestinal diseases <strong>it is necessary to either resort to supplementation with iron-based products<\/strong>, or in severe cases to intravenous iron infusion.<\/p>\n<h2>Obesity<\/h2>\n<p>Obesity is one of the World&#8217;s biggest public health problems. Obese patients who cannot lose weight are increasingly resorting to bariatric surgery. \u00a0All bariatric surgery techniques lead to a significant reduction in nutrient absorption. Iron, vitamin D and vitamin B12 are the main nutrients that are deficient after bariatric surgery.<\/p>\n<h2>SiderAL<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>: Sucrosomial<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> iron<\/h2>\n<p>To counter states of iron deficiency, PharmaNutra spa has developed Sucrosomial<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Iron (SiderAL<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>). This new technology represents an innovative oral formulation containing iron, in which iron pyrophosphate is covered in a matrix of phospholipids and sucrose esters of fatty acids (Sucrosome<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6061\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pharmanutra.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sucrosome-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pharmanutra.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sucrosome-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pharmanutra.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sucrosome-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.pharmanutra.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sucrosome-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pharmanutra.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sucrosome.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The result of this technology leads to <strong>high gastrointestinal tolerability<\/strong> and <strong>easier absorption of iron<\/strong> in the intestine. In recent years many scientific evidences (both preclinical and clinical) have been published in international scientific journals that confirm the effectiveness of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pharmanutra.it\/en\/sucrosomial-technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sucrosomial<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Technology<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Gastroresistance is given by the sucrester matrix, as demonstrated in dedicated studies, which protects iron from the acidity of the pH of the stomach. This allows the Sucrosome<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> to reach intact in the intestinal mucosa, where it is absorbed by enterocytes as a vesicular structure through paracellular and transcellular pathways.<\/p>\n<p>In the intestinal mucosa, in addition to enterocytes, there are membranous cells (M cells) belonging to Peyer&#8217;s plaques. Preclinical research studies have shown that these cells are also able to absorb the Sucrosome<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> by endocytosis.<\/p>\n<p>Many <strong>clinical studies in the gastroenterological field<\/strong> with SiderAL<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> have allowed to demonstrate how this technology is able to restore normal hematochemical values and to guarantee the normal functionality of red blood cells and hemoglobin.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>The innovation of Sucrosomial<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Technology is characterized by excellent tolerability and allows the intake of iron at any time of the day (with the meal or away from meals), for long periods of time, and prevents any discomfort commonly associated with iron intake, such as unpleasant metallic aftertaste, irritation of the gastric mucosa, nausea, or constipation.\u00a0 Overcoming the limits related to conventional iron supplementation, SiderAL<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> promotes the intake of this important nutrient in all situations of deficiency or increased iron needs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>BIBLIOGRAPHY<\/strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: square;\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sideral.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sideral.it<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanitas.it\/malattie\/obesita\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Humanitas.it\/malattie\/obesita<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mici360.it\/anemia-e-carenza-di-ferro-nella-malattia-di-Crohn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mici360.it\/anemia-e-carenza-di-ferro-nella-malattia-di-Crohn<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecco-ibd.eu\/publications\/ecco-guidelines-science.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ecco-ibd.eu\/publications\/ecco-guidelines-science<\/a><\/li>\n<li>G\u00f3mez-Ram\u00edrez, E.
