Iron supplements

[suzybear]

I'm coming to the end of my bottle of three arrows heme Iron. I'm just wondering if there any other recommendations for a cheaper iron supplemem4 ? I can't really afford three arrows at the moment.

I have ordered Optifera heme iron from Amazon. It is weaker than 3 arrows but was the only heme I could order in Europe. Maybe they also supply the uk. But I am not sure. The Optifera worked well for me. Even though it was a lower dose. I’m back on 3 arrows now. But when these run out I will go on to Optifera again.

I think Three Arrows is the most cost effective but maybe look at iron bisglycinate as a stop gap, if you do order more remember 3 bottles means free shipping and FRANKLIN saves you 10% making them 27p a capsule

Nutri Advanced Ferrodyn is very good and reasonable in price.

Not come across that I shall take a look, thanks

Iron Bisglycinate with added methylfolate and P-5-P B6

Ferrodyn

[suzybear in reply to TiggerMe]

I was recommended to take folate with a b complex as well so would this one be good for me? I was looking to take the methylfolate

[TiggerMe Ambassador in reply to suzybear]

Yes, this would be ok to add to a B complex

[suzybear in reply to TiggerMe]

It's just other costs at the moment. I would usually get the 3 bottles as its a food price but can only really afford one bottle of something for now . But thank you for the advice

I'm using Proferrin Clear. Ordered direct from the company in CO. I don't know how it compares to Three Arrows in price, but it has less lead and cadmium in its Certificate Of Analysis. It has only 10.5 mg iron per capsule, but has worked to raise my ferritin and help tinnitus. 90 capsules was $29, as I recall, there was probably a shipping charge too.

Thank you for your recommendation. Was just looking for something without shipping charge .
