High-Quality Best
"I strongly believe these are worth mentioning to your Doctor. I have an underlying medical issue and am anemic. IV iron does not stay with me. I have been taking these religiously for almost 5 months, x2 minis every other day, every day during my cycle, and there has been steady improvement. Noted difference started at the 64 day mark and is continuing. They look, smell and taste like iron, which I actually really like. Am pleased with the ingredients, what I'm putting into my body. Also do not wreak havoc on my stomach, big plus. Long way to go yet but am definitely sticking with these and recommend."
Blood Donation Must!
"I try to donate whole blood every two months to support our local children's hospital. In order to be eligible, donors must pass a hemoglobin screen to ensure that it's safe to donate. I've made appointments, driven down to the hospital and gone through the steps needed to donate, only to be turned away because my level were just under the requirement of 12.5g/dL. This happened several times and it is really frustrating, especially since my CBC values are always normal. The donor center staff suggested I take these Blood Builder tablets beginning a week in advance of my donation. IT TOTALLY DID THE TRICK! My hemoglobin value was well above what was needed after just one week. I am very grateful. The donation center and the hospital recipients are grateful too."
Fantastic iron supplement!!
"After finding out I had low ferritin & saturation, my doctor put me on an extremely high dose of Ferrous Sulfate along with a Vitamin C pill. I was miserable within the first 3 days! Stomach pain & headaches were my biggest symptoms. By week 1- I was constipated, still dealing with stomach issues, & still had headaches. I went down to just taking one pill a day. Still no relief. Then I switched to just taking 1 pill at night, even though it was suggested to take them on an empty stomach. Taking them at night helped my headaches- but not my stomach issues. I then moved to taking one pill in the morning every other day. Still no relief. I was adding extra vitamin c to my diet, still softeners- was about to go the Miralax route until I finally decided it wasn’t worth it! All in all, after 3 months of attempting to adjust to this medication- I had to stop taking the Ferrous Sulfate all together, it was wrecking me!
In comes Mega Foods Blood Builder!! The holy grail of iron supplements! I have been taking both pills in the morning on an empty stomach about 1-2 hours before a meal & I have had ZERO side effects. It’s been over a week & no headaches, no stomach aches & no constipation! I’ll know the true story of how well these work at my next blood draw- but at the end of the day, I feel comfortable knowing I’m adding iron to my system on a consistent basis & no reaping all of the horrific benefits that the prior medication gave me! I will continue buying from Mega Foods!!"
