Guest guest Posted March 30, 2003 Report Share Posted March 30, 2003 I'm in pretty sad shape with my iron and probably looking at iron injections or IV iron. Has anyone had experience with both (or either) that they can share? I've heard some pretty bad stuff about how horrible the injections are, but I've also heard that the IV is risky because some people have deadly reactions to it. Any info that anyone can share would be helpful. ------------------------------------------------ Terry Mayers 5DollarHosting.com® http://www.5dollarhosting.com (877)-838-HOST / .... because it shouldn't cost a fortune to make a fortune! ® Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2003 Report Share Posted March 30, 2003 If you want just iron supplementation, I recommend SOLGAR GENTLE IRON KOSHER 180 VEGICAPS at http://www.vitacost.com/Store/products/Products.cfm?SubCategoryID=3356 & dropdown1\ =product The product has Iron (as iron bisglycinate). Iron bisglycinate is Albion Labs trade name for iron amino acid chelate, which is most absorbable form of iron supplementation. It is used in prenatal vitamins because it is so easy to transport it to the fetus. It will not interfere with calcium absorption.
