I got anemic while I was pregnant. I was pale and felt tired and weak. My mid-wife recommended Solgar Gentle Iron. I couldn't find it at our pharmacy so I was going to take a regular iron brand. The lady there insisted I go to a health shop and find Solgar as she said it was much better than other iron tablets. I finally found them, and bought them despite them being much more expensive than the other brands. Within a month my iron levels went from 9 to 12 - even my mid-wife was amazed, as she was not expecting such a dramatic increase. I have been a firm supporter of Gentle Iron ever since.

I have finally been able to reduce my iron intake without being cold, tired and having brittle hair. Gentle Iron is great and highly absorbable. The only downfall is that it has bloated my stomach, which is bigger now than it was when I was taking Hemaplex 85 mg. It is unfortunate!

I would always fall asleep working at my computer, while
reading, and while driving! I knew this could be iron
related and tried every iron I could over the years. Solgar is the one that literally saves my life by allowing me to stay awake while driving (as well as reading and working at my computer). I have tried other chelated irons and none work like this one. Plus I have more energy during the day and don't have that horrible sleepy feeling.
