Iron Double Strength, 36 mg, 90 Veg Capsules, Now Foods

Double-strength Ferrochel® iron bisglycinate delivering 36mg of highly absorbable elemental iron per capsule — a gentle, non-constipating formula to support healthy iron levels, red blood cell production, oxygen transport, and energy.

Why

Not all iron supplements are created equal. Traditional iron salts (such as ferrous sulphate) are notorious for causing constipation, nausea, and stomach irritation — leading many people to abandon supplementation before their levels recover. Ferrochel® iron bisglycinate is a chelated form of iron bound to two glycine amino acids, which improves absorption across the intestinal wall and significantly reduces the digestive side effects common with standard iron supplements. At 36mg elemental iron per capsule (200% DV), this double-strength formula is well suited to those with confirmed iron deficiency, low ferritin, or increased iron needs — including vegetarians, vegans, and women with higher requirements. GMP quality assured by Now Foods, family owned since 1968.

Formula Highlights

• Ferrochel® Iron Bisglycinate (36mg elemental iron per capsule) — a patented chelated iron form in which iron is bound to two glycine amino acids. This chelation protects the iron from inhibitory dietary factors, improves intestinal absorption, and dramatically reduces the gastrointestinal side effects (constipation, nausea, stomach irritation) commonly associated with iron supplementation. Best taken with vitamin C to further enhance absorption, and away from calcium supplements, coffee, tea, or high-fibre meals.

Warnings

KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6. Do not exceed the recommended dosage unless advised by a healthcare professional. 36mg is a relatively high iron dose — not appropriate unless iron deficiency or increased iron needs are confirmed, as excess iron can accumulate in the body. Consult a healthcare provider before use if pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or managing a medical condition (including haemochromatosis or other iron metabolism disorders).
