Great value solution for my anemia!
I have chronically tested low on iron in my blood, and am finally convinced that I need to take a supplement, as clearly my dietary iron is not enough. I wanted chelated iron as it seems it is more usable to the body than other forms of supplemental iron. I thought about getting a more pricey one with vitamin C included, as vitamin C aids in iron absorption. However, I simply take Ferrochel Iron Chelate by Designs for Health with an orange, kiwi, mango, bell pepper, melon, berries, or some pineapple in the morning, and get my vitamin C with it that way. Iron gets absorbed best on an empty stomach (though that often causes stomach upset) so I eat it with an easily digested vitamin C rich food, as I mentioned above, and wait about 2 hours to have a heartier breakfast (like avocado on toasted sprouted bread - yum!). This bottle is a great value, equating to less than $5/month!
Pros
-
Price/Value. Chelated form. Easy to swallow capsule.
Cons
-
Nothing.

Fantastic!
My mom's doctor ordered Ferrochel Iron Chelated by Designs for Health for her after routine labs came back critical resulting in her needing IV Iron and two units of blood. She has been on Ferrochel since then (approximately four years). Labs have been perfect and when last checked a few months ago, her new doctor said she has the lab results of a 20 year old (she was 87 at the time). No constipation at all. Tolerating very well. Wouldn't use anything else.
Pros
-
It works and there's no side effects like constipation which is so common with other iron supplements.
Cons
-
She has to take 6/day which can sometimes be a struggle with all of the other supplements she takes.

My Fave Iron!
I've taken a couple of different iron supplements over the past year or so, but Ferrochel Iron Chelate by Designs for Health one is my favorite so far and seems to be the most effective for me. My ND recommended iron because I'm deficient. This one is easily absorbed and less likely to cause any kind of GI upset (I haven't experienced any from it so far!). My energy levels have noticeably improved while taking this, so I'm sticking with it!
Pros
-
Reasonably priced, no GI upset, effective
Cons
-
Nothing that I can think of!

Best Iron Out There
I love Ferrochel Iron Chelate by Designs for Health. It is easy on the stomach and it doesn't bind me up like ferrous sulfate does. This also works to bring your ferritin levels up. The capsule is medium sized but it's easy to swallow. I can take this with or without food without any problems. The price is better here than it is through my doctor. Also, since you get 120 pills it's a three month supply; pretty cheap when you look at it that way.
Pros
-
Price. Effectiveness. Easy on the stomach. Non constipating.
Cons
-
Nothing

Good Choice for IRON
Taking Ferrochel Iron Chelate by Designs for Health due to iron induced anemia and improved a lot of the symptoms without causing constipation. I decided to experiment after more than a year of taking daily, then started symptoms again. I'm reordering today and plan to keep taking Ferrochel Iron Chelate. I find it works and no side effects.

Marissa Burt

Is this a capsule or a tablet? If it's a capsule can it be opened and the powder mixed with food? If it's a tablet, can it be crushed and mixed in with food? Or does it need to be swallowed whole? Thanks!
