I have a 10 year old son who gets bloody noses and his doctor advised us to put him on iron. We decided to try a multi-vitamin with iron and it was not enough, he was still getting the bloody nose. We were searching looking for something chewable to ensure he gets the most iron out of it. Well, chewable/gummy iron is pretty hard to find. We found this and decided to give it a whirl. Surprise, it is exactly what he needed. No more bloody nose and no upset belly. He is happy and so are we! Great product and happy child, what an amazingly wonderful combination.

I can't give the product five stars simply because I'm not in a position to run blood work and see what, if any, iron changes are taking place, so I'll rate what I know. I bought these for a 2 & 1/2 year old to improve her iron intake. So far, giving her the supplement is very easy, as she loves the taste. It's a nice gummy bear that's not too big for her to eat, and I haven't had to do more than just give it to her. No fighting to get her to eat it, so that's worth a lot.<br /><br />If I notice any disruption in her behavior or "diaper deposits," that are out of the ordinary, I'll update this review, but so far it hasn't been an issue. She's only had three so far, but we give them to her one every two days.

This is the equivalent of sucking on a few pennies while someone whispers "grape" from across the house. Maybe iron supplements weren't meant to be in gummy form...

I just realized these are for children. I've been taking them for three days. Iron is hard on the stomach and my stomach has been bothered . I would advise parents to pay attention to your children and how they feel when taking these . I had blood transfusions and still needed my body to build up more iron and I purchased these on sale. I also don't understand how we're supposed to put a star rating to absorbancy unless you have been taking this product for a while and then get tested by a doctor . I think these are gross based on the sugar factor to hide the iron taste and I don't think it's a great choice for a child gummy. But if it's needed to get your child to take iron then I would say it's better than not .

I have tried iron in liquid form for my toddler kiddo. I tried putting in all kinds of juices even orange juice and my poor kid could not drink it! I finally took a sip of it and OMG I do not blame my poor kiddo for not wanting to drink his juice with a dose of iron! It was very hard to find an iron gummy for some reason! I put this iron gummy with his daily dose of multi vitamin and antibiotic gummy and he eats them with no problems! He just mentioned this iron one looked like a bear and was sugar coated but that was it. he did not mention a bad taste or smell or anything. Which is a win! I do not know yet how good the absorbency is as he just started taken them a few days ago but next doctor visit we will find out. Glad these iron gummies worked out for us!

I love that these have 5G of iron in them, as it translates to 325MG, which is what I was medically prescribed, but those caused a lot of nausea for me. I visibly notice that I feel much better, my skin coloring is consistent, I am less tired generally, and it also gives me more energy. I am able to comfortably take multiple at a time, and they taste like regular gummies. (Taste was also a huge issue with the prescribed ones)<br /><br />They do have an offer if you leave a review, but I did not do that, as I only like to leave reviews if it’s a quality product, which I think this is.
