What it’s for

The kind people choose when ordinary iron tablets upset their stomach. Small meals are the classic way to run low.

What to check in the listing

'Bisglycinate' or 'gentle iron' on the label is the form these are sold as; ferrous sulphate is the cheaper one. Iron is the supplement most worth a blood test and a pharmacist conversation before you start, because it is stored rather than flushed. Keep it out of children's reach — iron tablets are dangerous to small children.

Supplements are food, not medicine: nothing here treats or prevents anything. If you take any medicine, ask a pharmacist first.

FormCapsulesForm is how it arrives: something to swallow, something to stir into a drink, something to eat, or the kit that goes with them rather than a supplement itself.
PriceMid-rangePrice tier is the rough position within its category, not a live price: budget is the cheapest sensible option, premium costs more for a reason the page explains.
