MegaFood Blood Builder - Iron Supplement Clinically Shown to Increase Iron Levels Without Side Effects - Iron Supplement for Women with Vitamin C, Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid - Vegan - 60 Tabs

I dreaded taking iron when I was anemic. I’ve tried all the brands at the store. It’s really harsh on your stomach. It just made me feel ill. The Dr even tried giving me liquid version. It was like licking a penny. I bought this brand’s multivitamins and was so impressed! I bought this when I became anemic again. No problems whatsoever. My iron levels normalized and I never had any issues with upset stomach, nausea, or just overall ill feeling. Finally a brand I don’t mind spending the extra money for. Sometimes, they are on sale at Whole Foods so I’ll get them there if it’s a better price. Hope this is helpful to anyone needed a good iron supplement!

This product has made a noticable (positive) difference in my bloodwork. The Dr. has been very surprised. I don't even have to take it everyday to see the benefits. Sometimes there is a bit of an aftertaste for a few minutes but that is easily overlooked for the benefits. Also, it does not bother my stomach which sometimes can be a little sensitive.

I’ve tried several iron supplements over the years, and MegaFood Blood Builder is by far the easiest on my stomach. Most iron pills upset my stomach or give me constipation, but these are gentle and I haven’t had any digestive issues. I’ve been taking them daily, and I already feel more energetic and less run-down. I like that they’re made with real food ingredients and don’t feel like I’m taking a bunch of harsh chemicals. The tablets do have an off taste, so I take them with a flavored drink (juice or really anything with flavor would do), and they’re easy to swallow. Overall, if you need an iron supplement that’s effective and gentle, this one is definitely worth trying.

After using this iron supplement for a few weeks, I noticed an improvement in my energy levels and less fatigue throughout the day. The tablets are easy to take and didn’t upset my stomach, which has happened with other brands. I appreciate that the dosage is balanced and the instructions are clear. If you need support to maintain healthy iron levels, this product can be a good choice.

This product works if taken everyday. At first I skipped lots of days and did not notice any improvement in my yearly labs for Hgb (hemoglobin) and Hct (hematocrit). Then I started taking it everyday consistently and my next year's labs were raised significantly! And with no noticeable side effects! I gave four stars because they taste and smell pretty bad, but they work. For me it's worth it.

In MegaFood Blood Builder is an iron supplement that is beneficial for all women.

This supplement is great! I’m on my third 90 pill bottle. I really needed an iron supplement, I was having all types of iron deficiency issues. I did NOT want a supplement that made me nauseous. I was prepared to just be iron deficient and only try to get it through food until I found this. The comments all said it was great on an empty stomach, so I decided to try it out. The comments were correct, I have never had an issue with stomach upset and I take it every morning on an empty stomach and wait 30 minutes before eating. I have noticed my heart palpitations went away, I only get them if it’s stress related (like once every couple months, I was previously getting them daily due to iron deficiency. I feel that I get cold less often. I still feel like I’m probably still low on iron, but I was so low before that it has been a huge improvement. I don’t know if I should up the amount, I’m a bit scared to do that so I’m sticking with the recommended dose. But yeah, I feel less cold, still cold but I don’t violently shiver randomly when I’m cold and no one else is. So that’s a plus lol. Also I checked under my eyes to see how red or not red it was to check the iron levels. From the beginning they were basically flesh colored, not red at all. Now they are fairly red so that means it’s working. I also feel lightheaded less often. As a woman, I do believe it has helped my menstrual cycle be a little bit more tolerable. Overall I get less headaches and I was getting super intense pain at the start of the period for like 3 hours. Now that doesn’t really happen. I was getting that every time for months before taking this. Definitely a difference. And I’m sure there are other differences I don’t notice or remember. The only negative is this pill tastes absolutely horrendous, and the taste sticks to your tongue. But I’m willing to deal with the taste every morning rather than feel nauseous taking a different supplement. Also the fact that these pills also have vitamin C in them which you need to help iron absorption and I believe it was B12 and Folic Acid too? It’s very helpful. I have no intention of stopping taking this supplement for the foreseeable further. Thank you to this brand for making such a great supplement. Love that it is made from natural ingredients too. I don’t like having to worry about what’s in my supplements. 10/10 would recommend! (Also apparently drinking matcha can block some iron absorption, so if you drink it, I’d consider looking into this. I’ve seen not to drink it for 1-2 hours before or after supplementing or meals that include iron, if you want the full benefits. Not sure on the facts but just thought I’d mention.)

Doctor recommended me to order Blood Builder. I went with this brand & seems good. I do feel a difference in my energy & attitude. Don't feel as sluggish. Only take one a day in the morning, 9-nish. Hope next doctor visit better lab results.
