Solgar Gentle Iron 25 mg - 180 Vegetable Capsules

I have been taking for years.

Needed iron from health report. These capsules helped a lot, gentle on stomach as advertised. Also, helped with hair not falling out when combed, nails grew faster, above all great for my blood.

great vitamins

Solgar is one vita company I'd happily endorse. I have struggled with borderline anemia my whole life and I avoided iron pills for as long as I could because it makes me severely constipated. Decided to give this product a try and it's the only iron supplement that delivers on the promise of being non-constipating. It does make your bowels heavier a bit but I can still get my bowel movements. And the bigger plus, I finally was able to get my iron levels in the double digits as a result of taking these. That's been nearly impossible for me.

I LOVE this gentle iron. 3 years ago I was put on a 100 mg iron/day which can and did cause severe constipation despite 4 senna daily. It was excruciating! After I switched to this iron, no more problem. One important note: when I was released from the hospital in 2019 after 3 transfusions, they did not know what caused my hematocrit level to drop to less than 1/4 of normal (thus the iron) but the dr implied it was because I couldn't absorb enough iron from my food. She recommended taking a high dose of vitamin C with each iron to improve absorption.

This was prescribed by my physician, to keep from getting infusions.

Great! So gentle I can take everyday if needed with no stomach issue etc

Solgar is a very good brand of this type of absorbable iron. No upset stomach and lab work show good results! Only take iron supplements if doctor advised.

Thank you very good su

Can't rate, because bottle was mailed in a simple bubble wrap envelope with no other protection. Bottle was completely smashed to smithereens with glass and capsules scattered in the envelope. Not pleased. Sent USPS.
