Call for participants for an iron absorption study in Zürich

The Laboratory of Human Nutrition at ETH Zurich is looking for female subjects aged 18-45 years with a low iron status for a nutrition study. We are investigating the iron absorption of iron supplements taken with different foods and at different times of the day (morning vs. afternoon).  The aim of this study is to optimize recommendations for iron supplement intake.

The study includes 7 appointments within 43 days after the preliminary examination. On the preliminary examination, as well as on 4 study dates, a blood sample will be taken (about 8 ml) and on 6 dates you will take 100 mg of iron. You will be financially compensated for the participation in the study as well as for the preliminary examination.
