Hematogen

Hematogen (Russian: Гематоген, Gematogen; Latin: Haematogenum) is a nutrition bar, which is notable in that one of its main ingredients is black food albumin taken from processed (defibrinated) cow's blood, typically fortified with iron and vitamin C. Hematogen was discovered at 1890 in Switzerland.[1][2]
