I'm afraid many of us have found that ferrous sulfate is extremely hard on our systems causing stomach pain and constipation. Plus, folks have found we don't absorb it easily and their iron markers sink while taking it.
Some of the types of iron that haven proven absorbale and effective for us are carbonyl iron, ferrous fumerate, polysccharides, and heme iron. Vitalady carries all of these and Walgreens carries a combo of heme and polysccharide, Feosol Bifera. I take carbonyl in the afternoon away from all other vitamins and minerals, dairy, eggs, whole wheat, etc., and heme iron at bedtime. When I was bringing my iron labs up I took 300mg of carbonyl iron and 2 heme iron tablets snapped in 2 pieces for easier absorption.
