A highly bioavailable and gentle liquid iron supplement (Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate) suitable for maintenance or mild deficiency, especially for children or sensitive adults.
ChildLife Essentials Liquid Iron offers iron in the highly regarded Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate form, known for its exceptional bioavailability and minimal gastrointestinal side effects. The liquid format is a significant advantage for those who struggle with pills, making it an excellent choice for children (as suggested by the brand) and adults alike. While the iron dosage (5mg or 10mg per serving) is lower than therapeutic doses for severe adult iron deficiency, it is well-suited for daily maintenance, preventing deficiency, or addressing very mild depletion. Its high review count indicates strong user satisfaction, likely due to its gentle nature and ease of use.
- Uses highly bioavailable and gentle Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate
- Liquid form is easy to take for all ages
- Minimal gastrointestinal side effects
- Great for daily maintenance or mild iron needs
- Lower iron dose (5-10mg) may not be sufficient for treating moderate to severe adult iron deficiency
- Price per serving is higher than basic iron salts
- Consult a healthcare professional to determine the appropriate dosage, especially for children or if you have a known deficiency.
