Garden of LifeVitamin Code Raw Iron, 30 Capsules (2 Pack)

I believe it it working. I feel that it is however won't know until I get another blood test to see if my anemia has improved. It DOES not constipate like other iron supplements I've used. It's easy to take and I have no side effects. I have been please with all the products from this specific brand. The company makes great quality products.

My husband 's blood measured in the 9's and it needs to be between 13 and 14. This has helped to bring up his blood over 10 now and this is from the last Drs visit last Dec. I do know that it does not cause constipation.

I have come to trust the Garden of Life Vitamin Code products over the years. I originally purchased them at Whole Foods but due to the price could not afford to continue to do so, which is why I was so happy to find them for much more reasonable prices on amazon.As a vegetarian, I have to supplement my iron intake or I become anemic. It had been difficult in the past because it was so tough on my stomach and clearly was not being absorbed well because it would turn my stool black.Vitamin Code Raw Iron does not cause any trouble though. It is very gentle on my stomach and does not cause any indigestion or the aforementioned side effects. It gives me a lot of energy and if I have not taken it for awhile, I start to feel better almost immediately, if not within a few days. I highly recommend this product for vegetarians and for those with sensitive stomachs.

I discovered I was anemic during pregnancy, and my midwife had me start taking this to build up my iron. I take it every night right before I go to sleep (it absorbs better when you have not had anything else to eat for several hours and are not planning to eat anything again for another several hours, so bedtime makes the most sense for me). I have not had any of the problems or side effects that other people have complained about with other iron supplements - - no constipation, etc - - this one seems to be very gentle on the stomach. And I do seem to have more energy, and no longer get dizzy when I stand up quickly :-). They don't taste the best, so if you are very sensitive to the way pills taste then you may have an issue with this, but that was not a problem for me.

Helped get my Iron up to healthy levels while pregnant

Raw Iron has aided in my mild anemia issues and has helped to increase my iron levels to normal range (lower number of normal, but I will take this!). I do increase it by 1 pill 2 times a day for a total of 4 pills under Doctor’s instructions. Such a better alternative than a blood transfusion and less cost! Keep it stocked in my home.Love that it is all veggies, fruits and natural ingredients.

I had a 3 unit blood transfusion and my HCT was 28. My midwife recommended these and I just had my bloodwork done and it was up to 38. I was shocked. I've taken Floradix in the past but it has to be refrigerated and I love that these don't have to be. They don't upset my stomach AT ALL or cause any constipation whatsoever. Couldn't recommend these highly enough.

I’m expecting and if you’re pregnant or have ever been pregnant you know we’re plagued by constipation problems throughout pregnancy (unless you’re a the lucky 15%).......when my doctor told me I had anemia I freaked out at the thought of taking an iron everyday! Thank god for Garden of Life! This hasn’t backed me up anymore than normal! It’s a non constipating formula. 🙏🏼
