Solgar® Gentle Iron (Iron Bisglycinate) 20 mg Vegetable Capsules - Pack of 90,packaging may vary

I take it daily. I would be aneamic if I didn't. No side effects and easy to swallow.

I started taking these because I wasn’t sure I was getting enough iron from my diet and wanted to give my body a bit of extra support. I’ve always been a bit cautious with iron supplements because they can sometimes cause side effects, but these really have been gentle—just like the name says.No upset stomach, no nausea, no constipation. I’ve had no issues at all. I make sure to leave a few hours between these and my other supplements, especially anything with calcium or magnesium, just to help with proper absorption. That routine has worked really well for me.I take them with a bit of vitamin C to help them absorb and so far, I’m really happy with them. They’re easy to take and feel like a nice, simple way to support my energy and health.

Power of energy.

I use Solgar's iron regularly as I have Hashimotos and need to keep my iron levels up. I like that it's non-constipating and it doesn't affect my stomach. I don't like that it uses magnesium stearate so if I manage to find another alternative that doesn't use it, I'll favour that product.

When donating blood, my blood is always borderline with my iron levels. After trying my first bottle of this product, my iron test was absolutely fine when I next gave blood. I am reordering as it seems to work very well.

I purchased this product last week. I waited until the weekend to take it as I am always Leery of taking iron supplements because of the dreadful side effects I have had in the past. I took it after I had dinner on Saturday evening with my fingers crossed! I’m pleased to say I have had NO SIDE EFFECTS whatsoever! Definitely is true to its word about being gentle iron!

My ferritin was at an alright level of 54.3µg/L, but I decided to increase it for further health benefits.I have been taking a mix of "iron and other supplements" for a year, but only during the day after meals. After a recent blood test I saw that my iron level has not moved at all in a year! I cannot highlight this enough - the only way to get iron absorbed is you need to take it in the morning on empty stomach with Vitamin C (at least 500?). I also have very sensitive stomach so had to try these ones.That's what I did for a week - I did take more than the recommended dose, but that was my choice. Just so it happened that I had another scheduled blood test at the end of that week and my iron level was now 56.3µg/L. Basically ferritin increased by 2µg/L in one week.Pretty confident this supplement did this and I will continue now with this approach until I get it to at least 100µg/L.Also, no stomach ache or other side effects!I will update my review when I do another blood test.

Just note the picture shows a product of 25mg iron but the product is 20mg.
