Analysis

The 9 mg serving uses ferrous bisglycinate chelate, a well-absorbed and generally gentle form. Folate and vitamin B12 support blood-cell formation, while a broad vitamin and botanical blend shifts the formula beyond iron alone.

The modest iron amount is better suited to maintenance than correcting a substantial shortfall. The complex botanical and nutrient profile makes it a broad women's formula rather than a focused iron product.

The chaste tree, dong quai, DIM, and other botanicals make medication, pregnancy, and hormone-sensitive use harder to assess. Its poor value for iron alone further limits the appeal.

Who is it for
  • adults seeking a broad women-focused nutrient and botanical formula
  • People whose diet or laboratory results indicate low iron
  • People who prefer a four-capsule serving
Best for
  • Focused iron supplementation
  • Need-based iron intake
  • Users who value the specific format

Pros

  • Clearly states 9 mg of iron
  • ferrous bisglycinate chelate is explicitly identified
  • four-capsule serving format may suit specific preferences

Cons

  • Folate and vitamin B12 support blood-cell formation, while a broad vitamin and botanical blend shifts the formula beyond iron alone.
  • Does not address non-iron causes of fatigue or hair shedding
  • High or uncompetitive cost for iron delivery

Warnings

  • Chaste tree, dong quai, DIM, and other botanicals warrant review during pregnancy or when managing hormone-sensitive conditions.
  • Iron should be used only when intake or iron status indicates a need.
  • Keep the capsules away from children because accidental iron ingestion can be dangerous.

Nutrient quality

69 High impact

Ferrous bisglycinate is a well-absorbed form that is often gentler than basic iron salts. The iron amount is modest and better suited to maintenance than correction of a substantial shortfall.

Ingredient transparency

79 High impact

Listed active ingredients have stated amounts, and no proprietary blend hides a combined total. Complete intake directions and inactive ingredients are not supplied, while the iron compound and supporting nutrient names are specific and understandable.

Customer satisfaction

67 High impact

The average rating is strong, and the review count is limited. No review text is supplied to assess recurring complaints or purpose-specific experience.

Value for money

39 Lower impact

Premium nutrient forms support some of the cost, but the modest iron amount and broad botanical mix weaken iron-focused value. The serving is costly relative to the iron contribution.

Report overview
Iron (Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate) · 9 mg OverallScore64
B+ Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityB- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

A premium iron bisglycinate chelate supports absorption and digestive tolerance. The 9 mg serving is low for targeted supplementation, while vitamin B12 and folate support blood-cell formation, but no qualifying vitamin C amount is listed. High serving cost weakens value despite the premium chelate and moderate maintenance amount.
