Ingredient and preparation

Iron bisglycinate is a chelated iron label form. The reviewed NIH source describes iron generally and does not establish a unique outcome for this form.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, Office of Dietary Supplements

Evidence and limits

Iron is needed for haemoglobin and myoglobin. Iron deficiency anaemia can involve tiredness and concentration problems, but those symptoms do not identify iron deficiency in one person.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, Office of Dietary Supplements

Safety and a useful record

Iron supplements can be harmful in excess and should be kept away from children. Medicine interactions and the reason for use need individual review.
