I have perpetually low iron levels. I have tried everything - over the counter iron pills, boosting iron through food sources, using cast iron to cook. I have had so much trouble with most of these. The regular iron pills hurt my stomach so bad (and turn your stool black). Using a cast iron pan even hurt my stomach. However, these pills are amazing. I went back to the Natural Food Pantry to get a botanical iron I used to get but they didn't have it anymore and suggested this one instead. Despite the high price tag (22.99 for 90 pills), I still bought them because I was going through a serious low-iron phase and was having terrible side effects. These are amazing and so gentle on the stomach, I have no pain with these. They also don't turn your stool black. These are also apparently local so that makes me feel even better about paying that price.

*always note with iron supplements: take your iron with vitamin C and don't take it with calcium (milk, cheese, yogurt, etc). Vitamin C enhances the absorption of iron but calcium inhibits absorption!
