Today, I’m sharing with you my thoughts on and experiences with Synthesit™ Oxygen Force 1000, a dietary supplement that caught my attention as a safe, smart and simple way to improve my energy, performance, and recovery as Master’s level athlete and all-around active person over 50 years old.

What is Synthesit?

Synthesit™ Oxygen Force 1000 is a dietary supplement with the innovative bioactive mineral based on iron. It is intended to boost new blood stem cells production, restore circulation and increase blood oxygen level to as high as 100%. As a result, it gives you energy and strength to live life to the fullest. You can save $10 with code JEN1000

This particular dietary supplement stands apart from other common iron supplements. Synthesit is obtained using proprietary productions methods that result in superior absorption and increased red blood cells production.  It literally rejuvenates the body. 

Why do I need Synthesit™ Oxygen Force 1000 as an athlete?

In addition to Synthesit’s effects, like enhanced creation of blood cellular components, it also efficiently restores iron in the body and has no toxic effects. As a quickie science refresher, iron is needed to replenish the constant turnover of red blood cells (at the rate of 1% a day) and to keep this troop of tiny oxygen-deliverers adequately stocked with hemoglobin. Common ways athletes lose Iron is through sweat, GI-distress, even foot strike.

We need iron from food and supplements to be well absorbed. Absorption depends both on intestinal function and the quality of food. The better tissues and blood are supplied with oxygen, the better is intestinal function AND iron absorption. But, if your body doesn’t have enough iron, the blood oxygen level is also insufficient. Synthesit Oxygen Force helps to break this vicious cycle: “no iron — no oxygen, no oxygen — no iron.” 

Without oxygen moving from your lungs to every part of your body via the red blood cells, organs and tissues are not able to perform as they should, let alone at the optimal capacity demanded by the rigorous training schedule of an athlete.

A diet lacking in iron-rich foods, deficient in vitamins that are “helpers” to iron, or certain drugs that leach or prevent absorption can also be an issue.  Plus, menstruation and pregnancy have an impact on iron stores for female athletes. I have a past blog post regarding iron and runners, check it out HERE.

What are the health-supporting benefits of Synthesit for older athletes?

Your body’s ability to incorporate iron into red blood cells becomes less effective as it ages and tissue respiration decreases (athlete or not) on top of all the other issues descripted in the last section (like sweat, diet, drugs, etc.).  Having lower iron levels is all linked to declines in muscle strength, energy levels, recovery, mental abilities, and other issues which all affect training and staying well. But iron that is not absorbed creates free radicals which we don’t want either for the reason of different age-related health concerns.  Too little iron is bad, too much is bad – what do you do?  That’s where Synthesit can help.

Its superior absorption and an ability to boost new blood stem cell production allows you to exercise as if you were decades younger.  Synthesit simply gives the body resources for that: better blood oxygenation, new blood cells and better viscosity.  This keeps your blood young, with healthy iron levels, which eventually can help heal all tissues and organs. As mentioned, Synthesit is produced via a proprietary method which makes it a game changer for older body or any body, to help you feel and perform your best.

Because the blood quality can contribute to age-related health issues, keeping your blood within optimal condition is worth a discussion with your health care provider to figure out what’s right for you.

By the way, Synthesit isn’t designed exclusively for athletes, actually it has broad-spectrum benefits for anyone looking to improve vitality, energy, stamina, and general well-being as they age. It can help stabilize blood pressure; improve the health of damaged organs, musculoskeletal and skin regeneration through improved microcirculation; and support improved cognition among a range of other benefits. 

How do I take Synthesit and is it safe?

It’s easy to use Synthesit™ Oxygen Force 1000, simply add one capsule to your daily routine, ideally before breakfast. For best results, take at least 90 days and science shows that new blood stem cells take about 3 months to turn over. I was very happy to find that taking the supplement on an empty stomach did NOT make me feel queasy as most other iron supplements have in the past. One capsule is the recommended dose and it contains 1000mcg of the mineral based on iron (which equals 1mg).

According the National Institutes of Health (see Iron Fact Sheet), Men over 19 need 8mg a day, Women ages 19-50 need 18mg a day, Women 51 and older need 8mg a day, and Pregnant Women need 27 mg a day.

Taking a supplement is not meant to be a replacement for eating a balanced, healthy diet, but when dosed properly can help you fill in any gaps. Synthesit also helps you to absorb vitamins and minerals from your food.

Synthesit is safe to take “forever,” as an essential daily mineral for health. However, Synthesit is only indented for adults, and you should consult your doctor before use If you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medications or have any medical condition or suspected medical condition.

What is my personal experience with Synthesit?

I have not yet taken the supplement for 90 days (it takes 3 months for the new blood stem cells to turn over), but am seeing some initial results that may be linked to using Synthesit.  I am sleeping better, feel more alert in my day-to-day tasks, and feeling a little more energetic in my training sessions – it’s all interrelated, I know! I talked to my healthcare provider and will keep taking this product 1x per day, along with eating a healthy, balanced diet, as I continue to keep up my demanding training schedule and also transition through menopause (not quite there yet). I did appreciate that I noticed absolutely no nausea upon taking the supplement, which has been a big issue of mine with other iron supplements or multi-vitamins containing iron.
