Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have just begun taking iron bisglycinate and can affirm that it truly is non-constipating as everyone says, and as the maker claims. Yea! For anyone with constipation issues to begin with, you understand how important this is. As with ANY supplement, please do your research and monitor it closely with your health care professional. One reviewer claimed that THIS form of iron is adaptogenic, meaning that the body uses only what it needs and eliminates the rest (through the urine, in this case). This is NOT TRUE! I researched this extensively and found NO medical (or other) website that supported that statement. The maker does NOT claim this. ALL medical info. says that EXCESS IRON IS STORED IN THE BODY - in the liver especially, (and in other organs), and therefore it is very important NOT TO OVERDOSE and cause injury to vital organs. That can be very serious and potentially life-threatening! Do YOUR OWN research. Also, there are foods that inhibit iron absorption (eggs, cheese, tea etc.) so be mindful of WHEN is the best time to take your iron. Vitamin C helps absorption of iron. MY multivitamin does not have iron, and so I am taking my iron supplement with my noon meal along with my multivitamin. See what works best for you. I hope this review helps you be conscientious with whatever supplement you use, and not to take anyone else's word for claims (unless they are a health professional). If you find something that works well for you, share it with others, including your Doctor!
