Hi

This is meant to be good

http://www.iherb.com/Chelated-Iron-90-Vcaps/11571?at=0

My family takes Ferrous Fumarate 310mg contains 100mg of elemental iron plus 350mcg of folic acid. No one has had any constipation from it and their ages range from 6 to 55. My dad got his ferritin from 26 to 103 in 2 months and that was not taking iron for 5 days.

Another way to keep your iron up without taking supps. Is to take a 500mg tab of vit c after lunch and dinner.

Thanks Sky. Do you have any recommendations that would be the equivalent dose of what I am taking at present? I hate that I need to change since I am at a good level but if this iron is not well tolerated in the body then I want to try something a little less harsh, I guess. I don't seem to have any problems with this iron other than constipation but I take 800mg of Magnesium daily and this helps. Even if I am doing well on this iron do you suggest I change and if so what does this type of iron do to the body? I even went back to the STTM site today and the Ferrous Sulfate is recommended there as well which is why I started on this type of iron. Anyway, I do appreciate the comments and if you know of an iron that would be better could you please let me know. My daughter is also taking the same.

ASome of htem have even less and what matters is the LEEMENTAL IRON must

be 150-200mg daily which is alot of pills but thta is what it takes to

raise ferritin.

Hi

The actual dose is low but you take 3 or 4 at a time twice a day even if that means taking it during the night.

I just switched to Nature MAde iron that was a little higher in dose than my last supplement, it has 65mg of elemental iron which say it's equivalent to 325 mg ferrous sulphate. I didn't know this about the sulphate. I haven't had any constipation with it. I was taking 50mg of a different iron for 10 months and the ferritin didn't go up much at all. The Iherb has 27mg, isn't that a bit low per dose?Recent Activity:
