Lifeable Iron Gummies | 20mg | with Vitamin C | Great Tasting Blood Builder Iron Supplement | Iron with Vitamin C for Iron Deficiency | Iron Gummies for Women, Men, Adults | 90 Gummies

I’m pretty sensitive to pills so I decided to try the gummies instead since I’ve thrown up before taking iron pills even the slow release ones. They actually don’t taste bad at all. I chew it on one side fully and swallow it quick and there is a little metal aftertaste but not bad at all. I think everyone is being dramatic about the taste and I was pleasantly surprised it wasn’t bad at all as long as you don’t swish it around your mouth while you chew and I think it helps there is vitamin c in it as well. Hopefully I start to feeling better!

I have chronic anemia and iron tablets as low as 18mg upset my gut. I like that these gummies contain 10mg iron each, so I can space out the dose. The small amount of vitamin C is enough to help facilitate the absorption. They are heavily sugared, so beware if you have diabetes or sugar/glucose sensitivities. The sugar cancels out the iron taste, though a metallic aftertaste does linger. It's best to follow with a glass of water or a stick of gum. I have a disdain for swallowing pills, so having a "candy" formulation works really well for me. The bottle has a child-proof cap, important given the candy appearance and dangers of iron overdose. I ordered March 2021 and received a bottle that expires February 2022. All images and information the company provided are accurate.

The taste is really not that bad, I don't know why everyone is freaking out about it. It doesn't taste amazing but it's a vitamin, it doesn't need to. My cat got very suspicious of it somehow, maybe they can smell the iron and think it's blood, so at the very least it can be entertaining if you have cats. Also seems like the only one with a useful amount of iron in it compared to basically all other brands I've seen on Amazon. Do your homework and look up the amounts of iron on the back- if you actually want an iron supplement you need to take more than your required daily value since the bioavailability is so low. The vitamin C helps it absorb in the gut. And 90 count for $15- good bang for your buck if you ask me.

After realizing that I wasn't getting enough iron into my diet, I decided to purchase supplements. I have taken iron supplements in the past for previous health concerns, so this wasn't my first time. It was, however, my first time with this specific product. I really struggle with swallowing pills, so I sought this out since it was in a gummy format. (The previous iron pill I took being a harder chewable kind rather than a gummy). I just received these so I can't necessarily speak on the effects, but in terms of flavor it's honestly not bad. Sure, it's not something I'll ever crave as a midnight snack, but it goes down really easy. I would say this (after obviously consulting with a doctor first) would be a good choice for a child as it doesn't have that strong of a taste and nor being hard to chew. I imagine I'll purchase again in the future.

Before switching brands I first bought these gummies in July 2022 (for $17) and they worked okay! They arrived on time and in mint condition and did the job while I was searching for alternative brands. Granted these gummies may not be as effective as other brands, but they might help anyone who is looking for a starter brand and does not mind the sugar content. Overall the “Lifeable Iron Gummies with Vitamin C - 20 mg - Great Tasting Natural Flavor Gummy Supplement - Gluten Free Vegetarian GMO-Free Chewable - for Iron Deficiency - for Adults, Men, Women - 90 Gummies” get a serviceable 3/5 stars!

Needed to up my iron intake and I’m happy I found the gummy option. I don’t like taking pills so if I can do gummies I chitchat. They taste really good so they’re easy to use. They don’t upset my stomach and they have the usually gummy texture you would expect.

These taste pretty bad, metallic and bitter. They are hard to chew, hard in general, and are coated in a sugary coating that isn't easy on the teeth. Unfortunately won't be buying these again.

My daughter likes taking these rather than the iron pills
