    Great Price, No Aftertaste!

    I purchased the NOW Supplements, Iron 36 mg because my hair seemed to be falling out a lot and I read that this might help that.The capsule has a brownish colored powder in it. It doesn't have the usual Now purple lid with the pull off, it has a childproof type lid with an inner seal. There is a desiccant pack inside.The capsule is easy to swallow, I didn't notice any smell or aftertaste and it didn't bother my stomach. Taking on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. It hasn't been long enough to tell if it is helping.Minimal ingredients and Made in the USA.Third party certified.I thought the price was good for the 90 capsules and I would buy again.

    High potency iron that's easy to absorb and assimilate

    This form of iron supplement is much easier to absorb and assimilate. At 36mg it's higher potency than other brands. I've actually gone back to the lower 26mg capsules for a while but had good success with these. I believe "Now" is a trusted brand so that's good too. One note, it's best to take iron supplements every other day, or three times per week such as M/W/F.

FAQs

Is 36 mg of iron too much?

A dosage of 36 milligrams of elemental iron per day is considered a high-potency or double-strength serving, often recommended for individuals addressing clear iron deficiencies or low dietary intake under medical guidance. It is well within the safe tolerable upper intake level for adults, which is generally 45 milligrams per day, provided it is taken responsibly.

What makes Ferrochel Iron Bisglycinate better than regular iron supplements?

Ferrochel Iron Bisglycinate is a chelated form of iron bound with amino acids, allowing it to pass through the stomach intact for better absorption in the intestines. This chemical structure prevents the free iron ions from irritating the gastrointestinal tract, ensuring it remains highly bioavailable and non-constipating.

Can vegetarians and vegans safely consume this supplement?

Yes, this formulation is specifically enclosed in hypromellose cellulose capsules instead of animal gelatin, making it 100% vegetarian and vegan friendly. It is also free from common allergens like gluten, soy, dairy, and nuts.
