Does this really contain iron? Wiki entry states it does (not this product specifically, but Maca).

Maca is considered a food source! It has trace amounts of alot of vitamins and minerals! Depends on how much you take! I take it in the morning with breakfast along with a few other vitamins! Gives you a little boost!

I know that maca has alot of vitamins in it! You would have to look up this brand of maca! You can get iron from other soruces like spinach or other greens! I like it and it works for my hot flashes and it has good nutrients in it!

Noted from the webste healtguidance.org, 'The Magical Benefits of Peruvian Maca' states "Chemically Maca root contains significant amounts of amino acids, carbohydrates, and minerals including calcium, phosphorous, zinc, magnesium, iron, as well as vitamins B1, B2, B12, C and E. Peruvian Maca also includes a number of glycosides.To what levels, I could not answer. I would have to say it would most likely depend on the dosage and purity of the product. You could find a product you like and then contact the manufacturer.

Almost all fruits and vegetables have some amount of iron in them. Iron can be found in your darks leafy greens, grains, squash family, nuts, chocolate, beans, and even tofu. So, being maca is a plant, it would have some amount of iron in it.

Iron is 2mg per serving.. No Calcium nor Magnesium is listed so I'm assuming there is none.

Yes. It contains 18 mg of iron (and it says that 18 grams is 100% of the daily value).

It does contain maca, which is a natural stimulant, which has similar effects to caffeine. If you need to avoid caffeine you will probably need to avoid maca as well.

No. But you should know this is the best assimilated form of iron and easiest on your system. And does not cause as much damage from free radicals as other forms of Iron.

I checked the bottle and don't seen any iron listed. They have a website: www.gummyvites.com I haven't looked at the webiste, but I am sure they have more info about their products than Amazon. And really, they should make that info available on Amazon's website because you are purchasing something you are ingesting into your body. I purchased these the first time from Sam's Club and so I read what was on the package at that time. I do like them. They are easier to take than the capsules I was taking and they don't upset my stomach. Hope this helps.

No. It is ferrous sulfate. I find the labeling annoyingly misleading, as it implies that it is something other than FeSO4. What the labels means is that each tablet contains 325 mg of ferrous sulfate, which contains 65 mg of elemental iron.

Yes, it is. I don't count on the iron content for my total iron needs, though. I use a 325mg ferrous sulfate supplement.

Yes it does. That's actually the reason why I bought this product and returned another. Here's what the bottle says: Iron (as gluconate) 2.5mg 25% daily value for children under 4 and 14% daily value for children over 4 Hope that helps. If you have any more questions about the product, please feel free to ask.

I drink the Vanilla flavor; on the label there is no Iron listed but it does say "Not a significant source of Vitamin C & Iron".

It doesn't explicitly say, but I see no animal ingredients. It does have sodium benzoate and trace potassium sorbate. But I cannot find any that don't. My guy has been okay with it, no reactions. You have to follow with food, bc of taste. It's primarily b vitamins, and has no iron or apparent metals.

I thought the ingredients were on the box ! Things like Nitrogen,iron,content. I don't have a box to check it out.

Hi Hung L, Thank you for your interest. Our Maca Powder is 100% gold Maca root powder which is from the yellow root. Red yellow and black Maca are all the same species of plant (Lepidium Meyinii) with just slightly different pigments. I hope this helps.

Yes, this product does have a warning label. I just received my 1lb maca Powder and saw a warning label on it. I read what Healthworks wrote about Cal Prop 65. We already consume so much lead throughout our daily intakes, so "0.5 mcg/day" using this particular Maca powder adds up to a toxic level. I will return this product. I purchased this before Healthworks post their answer. Since others answered that they did not see a warning label, I purchased it. I should have closely read the small print on the image.

Have they added Chromium to this-no. Does it contain some Chromiun-yes. All fruits contain trace amounts.

No. There is no dietary Iron in these, as per the ingredient list. None of the ingredients (HMB, magnesium stearate, gelatin) contain iron either. Cellulose is inert and not digested.
