Carbonyl Iron Tablets 30

Carbonyl Iron is composed of nearly pure iron (98%), unlike many other iron supplements, which contain iron salts such as iron fumarate or iron gluconate. Traditional forms of medicinal iron, such as iron salts, are often poorly absorbed, and unabsorbed iron can lead to side effects such as constipation or, in some cases, loose stools. Carbonyl iron is well absorbed and proven to be non-constipating.
