Hello, I have found quite a few sources that say that iron is best used by the body on an empty stomach (ideally on an empty stomach, if it is digestible for the person, or with a sufficient distance between meals, 2 hours for example). What is your reason for recommending taking iron with food? Is it a different formulation of the product or something else?

Hi Barbara, isolated vitamins and minerals are generally better absorbed when taken with food, as food contains additional trace elements that help with absorption. Fasting can cause nausea for some people if they have a more sensitive stomach.
Conversely, iron should not be taken with calcium (dairy products), which reduces its absorption, as does tea or coffee. Have a nice day :).
Hello,
when will the supplement be available again? Or what other brand of iron and vitamin C supplement would you recommend for pregnancy?

Hello,
is it possible to take this supplement together with the Vilgain multivitamin? Is it advisable to consume both supplements together?
