Geritol High Potency Vitamin & Iron Supplement, With Ferrex Tonic, 12 Fl Oz

Old school is best. I get a burst of energy with every dose. Doesn't taste well, it works

Women need an iron supplement. This has done so much for me. My energy levels have increased and I am no longer suffering a mid day crash. Sleeping throughout the night, hair and nails are much stronger and focus is amazing. It tastes like death, so I mix it in with pineapple juice which helps a lot. Great product. I would suggest ordering two bottles at a time so you don’t run out while waiting for next delivery. I’m in Australia and it takes approx two weeks to arrive each time.

It arrived late. The taste is not pleasant, I found it horrible. I have been taking it for 2 weeks, don't feel any difference but that could be because my iron level is extremely low. I have started to notice it's staining my teeth which can happen with oral iron supplements. Overall I won't be purchasing it again.

It works. “There’s a baby at the end of the bottle.” We had been trying for almost a year and this was my last attempt. I had been tracking my period, buying all the tests, took prenatals, my husband was taking his vitamins, and nothing worked. After finishing the bottle (take the recommended daily dose) I took a test and it was negative so we decided to stop trying. A month later I found out we actually conceived about a week after finishing the bottle 😅 I am now almost 18 weeks. I’d say give this a try. I would 100% buy this again when trying for my second baby! Also I felt very energetic and great while taking this vitamin! Worth every penny! Here’s what I think worked: I took the recommended dose but mixed it in cranberry juice. Cranberry juice is packed with vitamin c (helps your body absorb iron better), is good for women’s health (iykyk), and masks the disgusting taste / smell of the liquid vitamin. With my previous prenatal I was drinking the pill with water so I think the juice makes a difference. Drink after breakfast! At night I had raspberry tea or nettle leaf tea or ginger and lemon tea (rotate every night). If you’re ttc, good luck and don’t give up!

I’m almost finished with my 1st bottle and here are my thoughts/results: The taste is very strong and can be hard to stomach for most. The reason for this is the brewers yeast that’s in this. When I first smelled it, it smelled stinky but familiar and when I saw brewers yeast on the label that’s when it clicked. I used to give my dogs brewers yeast supplements and that is the exact smell. I’ve learned to deal with this by pouring the 15ml into the measuring cap and adding water to the rest of it. I have 30 ml cups I use. Throw it back quickly and then vigorously rinse my mouth out with a cap of water twice. Then, I gargle and swish to finish removing all presence of the taste out my mouth. You can try brushing your teeth after to really get it out. Ok, so taste aside, I feel like my energy levels have definitely improved as I have problems with my b-12, vitamin d levels and iron. The end of this week will be 4 weeks for me. I can’t say anything about hair and nail growth, which prompted me to try it as it takes a long time for a supplement to work on that level, but I definitely feel different in a good way. My joints don’t ache as much and my mood has improved. Vitamin deficiency can play a role in mood and I noticed a difference. I don’t sleep any better, it seems like I can’t go to sleep like I want to. I’m staying up longer, starting this past week. I still take a vitamin d3 supplement in conjunction with this so I don’t know if this affected my energy as well. This is my first liquid vitamin and I think that made a huge difference in my absorption of the vitamins. I have problems with malabsorption due to digestive issues which caused my deficiencies. The liquid seemed to work better than the gummy and sublingual vitamins I take. I’m going to finish this bottle but due to the taste, I’m going to try the geritol pills and see if I have the same results. I don’t know what else I could mix this with to cover the smell/taste. Good value for your money, just wish it tasted better Sidenote: Brewers yeast can cause an increase in appetite, it does for me, so be mindful of the time of day you take it to avoid being hungry. I take it early in the evening so I’m asleep and don’t notice it. I rather wake up hungry than go to bed hungry.
