Review: Worked well Alone and With Ferret's Iron - These are really some great Iron pills! in early 2013, I was having issues with my hair thining and finally I told my primary care doctor to send me to an endocrinologist to be tested since she couldn't really give me reasonable answers to my issue. After getting a full panel of blood work done and having it indicate that I almost had no iron in my body, I spoke to my my brother (who is a health enthusiast) and he told me to look into the issue of thinning hair and low iron in women. Low and behold, I found a lot of information about women's thinning hair issues and having low iron without anemia. I went back to the endocronolgist armed with my research and she too confirmed that having such low iron could be contributing to my issue so she prescribed me 325mg of ferrous sulfate (which equals 130mg of elemental iron). This dosage is 600% more than the daily recommended iron dose for women! Yes, my iron was that low... As i looked back over previous blood test from my annual physical exams, apparently it had been like that for years, but because the ferritin level was at the very bottom end of the very wide range or big gap of what is considered normal, my Dr didn't bother to mention any concern for the issue. This is why, to some degree, I've learned that you really have to take your healthcare in your own hands. Anyhow, after just taking the prescription drugs for 2 or 3 days, my stomach was in so much pain that I had to leave work a few times. The prescription drugs also causes you to be very constipated. The endocrinologist told me that I would have to take those pills about a year to get my iron and ferritin levels up to par, but I knew there was no way in hell I was going to suffer taking those pills for a whole year because they debilated my quality of life just that much. So, I started looking for alternatives immediately and I came across these pills. I began taking them about 30 days before my next blood test and as I took them, I had no stomach cramping, no feeling of nausea and best of all, I wasn't constipated at all. However, you must have something on your stomach before taking them because they can make your stomach upset a little if it's empty. To put this review in perspetive, in Aug 2013 before taking these pills my ferrition was 11.6 on a scale of 11.0-307 and my iron was 27 on a scale of 50-212. When I went back in about 30 days to have my blood re-tested my ferritin had increased to 17 and my iron had increased to 142! That was amazing to me! Research says that you need to get ferritin levels up to at least 70 for several months before any significant change with hair can be seen, but I will say that just taking these pills alone (2 pills 2x per day) definitely was a big help! However, because I needed way more iron to build of my iron stores (i.e. ferritin, since it's the hardest to build up) and I didn't want to pop these pills all day long, I now take these along wth Ferrett's Iron Supplement because you get 106 elemetal iron in one pill with the Ferret's brand iron. In early Oct 2013, I began taking 2 of the Now iron pills first thing in the morning with a tangerine (Vitamin C helps increase absoption) and 2 hours before having any dairy (dairy decreases iron absorbtion). And at night, I take 1 Ferretts Iron Supplement pill and one 1000mg of Vitamin C tablet before I go to bed and I am delighted to report that my 3rd blood test that I took on Nov 6, 2013 revealed that my iron level is now 168 and my ferritin is 49.9. I am very glad that I choose the natural alterntative to increase my iron levels and if you try either of these two products, you will be glad too! If you don't need as much iron as I do, then these pills may work just fine for you.
Review: Excellent Product - As someone who is borderline anemic I knew it was time to look for an iron supplement when I started noticing feeling tired & cold. I was looking for an iron supplement which was easy to digest & didn’t leave me feeling constipated. For me, at least, this iron supplement which comes in a capsule form delivered in every aspect I was hoping to find. It turned out to be gentle on the digestive system with no bad aftertaste or upset stomach & did not leave me constipated. After taking it for a while I stopped feeling chilly & tired all of the time. An extra added benefit of iron is that the body needs it to stimulate the hair follicles & promote hair growth. I found this brand & form of iron to be everything I was looking for & hoping to find. A daily dose of this product is one capsule taken once daily.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: This brand has a lot different iron supplements. How do you know which to get?**
A: This one, Now Iron 18 mg, 120 Veg Capsules is the one I always buy.  I have low iron and this keeps me up to par.  The veggie capsule is a real plus.  My doctor said to take it with vitamin c.

**Q: How many of these is equal to 325mg of Ferris sulfate?**
A: Debra's simple math is missing the context of the question, especially given her suggestion to overdose on the product, which you never want to do for long with minerals or fat-soluble vitamins. The main takeaway is that due to increased bioavailability in the gut, they are equivalent in terms of the amount of iron your body will absorb. The 65 mg of elemental iron in ferrous sulfate are equivalent to the 18 mg of iron in ferrochel bisglycinate.

This product, while more expensive than ferrous sulfate, is intended for those who have sensitive stomachs or who have malabsorption issues. Among folks who would use this product this is most of us though; since healthy people, particularly the beef, bean and green eaters, and the non-bleeders, do not need extra iron. 

How much extra does someone with malabsorption need? There's only one answer and that's: Its highly variable. But whenever you go beyond the RDA dose you should consult medical (not Amazon answers) and also not plan on staying at that dose for long. Real food is always the answer. Supplements and drugs are to fix things, not maintain them. Remember that.

**Q: Is this ok for 68 year old woman?**
A: I am a 59 year old woman and I take one twice a day. They do not cause constipation or any other side effects. If you're concerned check with your doctor. Best wishes.

**Q: Is this chelated?**
A: No. Now Iron is a gentle free iron, not bound to non- metallic ions. It does not cause constipation and is gentle on a sensitive stomach. I have taken this iron pills for several years without any problems. I highly recommend them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally Found an Iron Supplement That Doesn’t Upset My Stomach
*by J***5 on May 12, 2025*

I’ve tried several iron supplements over the years, and most of them left me with unpleasant side effects like nausea, constipation, or stomach cramps. This brand has been a total game changer. I’ve been taking these consistently and have experienced zero side effects. No upset stomach, no bloating — just a gentle, effective supplement that does exactly what it’s supposed to do. I also appreciate that the pills are easy to swallow and don’t have that metallic aftertaste that some iron supplements leave behind. It’s rare to find an iron supplement that’s both effective and easy on the system, so I’m sticking with this one. Highly recommend it to anyone who’s struggled with iron pills in the past!
