Thank You for Your Interest

At Helaina, we’re committed to building the scientific foundation for human-identical lactoferrin and its role in supporting iron balance and overall health. As part of this effort, we are conducting a new research study focused on women with low iron stores.

Iron plays a critical role in energy production, cognitive function, and overall vitality. When iron levels are low or poorly regulated, women may experience symptoms such as fatigue, low energy, brain fog, reduced exercise capacity, and difficulty maintaining overall well-being. Globally, iron deficiency remains one of the most common nutritional deficiencies, affecting an estimated 1 in 3 women.

This study is designed to evaluate how a combination of lactoferrin and iron impacts iron status and overall well-being.

If you are a woman who has had low ferritin levels (below 35 ng/mL) within the past six months and are interested in contributing to clinical research that aims to better understand iron regulation, please scan the QR code or follow the link (below) to learn more.

If you are eligible, a member of our research team will contact you with next steps and screening details.

This work reflects Helaina’s broader mission: to translate human biology into clinically validated solutions that address foundational health needs, starting with iron.
