Best Iron Supplements

Best Iron Supplements - Heme Iron Costs More But Works Better

TL;DR: Flintstones & NovaFerrum dominate for taste/ease; Blood Builder & Thorne bisglycinate top picks for sensitive stomachs; generic ferrous sulfate is cheap but hard on guts; heme options (Three Arrows/Proferrin) pricey but effective; liquids stain teeth so use a straw; take with Vit C/OJ for absorption
