I am a little confused - you said you were taking heme but what you listed is ferrous fumerate but 6mg? what is live 600mg?
What brand of iron is this so I can look closer or do you have a link to the bottle ingredients?
They used to say we can take heme iron with calcium but this poster has shown that we can't, I am not sure what to believe,
I personally take the tender irons with C and they work great and much cheaper than heme
If you want to take heme - do yourself a favor and get the good stuff, get proferrin. You need to break it in half and take away from calcium and with no vitamin C - also atleast 2 hours away from thyroid medication. IT is pretty expensive, so you might want to try tender irons from vitalady.com they have the vitamin C in them and they work really well.
hemevite (k-26)by i guess apex energetics
then on the back
it says
vitamin C 220 mg
iron (as ferrous fumarate) 6 mg
LIVER (biovine) 600 mg
betaine HCI 100mg
i got these from my chiropractor, i was having so much constipation problems with the iron from my surgeon... and it was my chiro that finally agreed with me that i was low on b-12 at 352 not my surgeon or my PCM..i was low on vitamin D too....agreed with my chiro, not surgeon and PCM....
im just gonna keep this with my dinner schedule that i have been doing..thanks guys
