Iron 30mg Tablets by Building Block Vitamins - Iron Supplement

This pill is great because you only have to take it once a day, and it's not a horse pill like the BB Calcium that you have to take 6 times a day. Although I am switching to liquid or chewable forms of Calcium and the Multivitamin, I am going to stick with the BB Iron.

Iron deficiencies occur with gastric bypass surgery because the surgical procedure bypasses the portion of the gut that absorbs iron.

Iron should be taken for life and in a form that is readily absorbable. The most absorbable forms of supplemental iron are fumerate or iron chelate.

Long-term studies have found that the risk for iron deficits following gastric bypass surgery are NOT reduced over time and may occur even with iron supplementation.
