Hi There-No there is no added iron. You would have to take a supplement if you need to add more iron to your diet.

No, I don't believe so. That wasn't a prerequisite for myself. What I love is that this iron is dependable and works fast. I still love it!

First off I am not the manufacturer or the seller.Second, if you read the label, it does not just say "no iron" it clearly says "NO ADDED IRON". So if you need additional iron in your diet this isn't for you. Women normally need additional iron in their diet, men do not.So this product works better as a male dietary supplement than it does for a woman.

Dr Fuhrman's vitamins contain no iron or folic acid. They also don't contain vitamin A which I love.

Only 5mg of Elemental IronThere is some confusion with the Ferrous Fumarate and Elemental Iron content. I emailed the manufacturer and was told"My gummies contain 15 mg of Ferrous Fumarate which equivalent to 5 mg of elemental Iron."This is important as you do not receive 15mg of Elemental Iron.

Hi, Dennis ;Merry Christmas! The gummy doesn't have iron but the 60 ct bottle of pills has 100% iron andd that is a very good one. I bought this for a friend because she doesn't like the pills, they are too big. LOL

I assume it is carbon, since that is what turns iron into steel. However, I don't know for sure.

It isn't! It hasn't helped me even one bit with my iron levels, I recently switched to this Iron Zahlers Iron Complex, Complete Blood Building Iron Supplement with Ferrochel, Easy on the Stomach Iron Pills with Vitamin C, Optimal Absorption, #1 Top Quality All Natural Iron Vitamin, Kosher Certified, 100 Capsules and the results were much greater!! They didn't constipate me and it also has Vitamin C in it. My levels went up really quickly after switching to this one.

It tells you this answer in the description:Concentrated extract of marine complex (fish/shellfish), horsetail extract, isoflavenoids, iron fumarate, ascorbic acid, biotin, niacin, ferrous sulfate, zinc chloride, catalase.So yes, it now contains Iron just like the other one.

garden of life emailed me suggesting i give this raw iron to my 6 yr old. since they removed the iron from the kids multivitamin. i'm thinking i'll start with half a caspule. my daughter still takes the multivitamin from garden of life, but she get dark circles when she misses iron. since this is the only iron that has suited me, and i have anemia, i wish i found this years ago esp during pregnancy. the family multivitamin only has 11% iron with 4 capsules doesnt make sense. that means if i give her 2 capsules she gets 5% iron. our food is good vegetarian and she eats a lot of greens and beets and stuff... so some times iron has to be supplemented.

I don't know. But it is the only iron supplement that has worked for me. All the iron in it is derived from fruit and vegetables

There are very few chewable vitamins PERIOD that have iron (children or adult). You will find a warning on most that because children may view them as candy, they don't include iron because it can constipate and cause other issues in children if they eat too many.
