I’ve tried every form of iron, but unfortunately I got stomach complaints from this one too. It’s probably down to me, as I’m sensitive to all sorts of things. In the end I had to completely change my diet and now I get iron from meat and fish.
Really good!
I’ve been using them for a while now. And they do their job well. That’s why I keep ordering them again and again.
I need to use it for longer to know whether it helps.
This works well for me. And it doesn’t cause constipation. A great support when your iron level is on the low side.
- Contains a highly absorbable form of iron
- Contains amino acid-chelated iron (bisglycinate, patented Albion process) for optimal absorption
- Does not cause constipation
- Does not cause nausea
- Highly suitable during pregnancy
- The dark glass packaging offers optimal protection against the effects of oxygen, moisture, and light

Hello, my ferritin level is 4.4. The doctor said that instead of what she prescribed, I could also take this, 1 tablet a day of 20 mg. This would amount to the same thing. How quickly will I notice an improvement?
On 06 november 2025 by Customer serviceA ferritin level of 4.4 is indeed very low, so it's good that you're addressing this. Solgar Gentle Iron (20 mg iron bisglycinate) is a mild, well-absorbed form that can be comparable to what doctors sometimes prescribe.
Generally, it takes about 4 to 8 weeks before you can start feeling noticeably better (more energy, less fatigue). The recovery of the ferritin level itself usually takes several months, depending on how quickly your body replenishes the iron and whether you take it daily.
Continue using the supplement consistently and have your ferritin level checked again after 2 to 3 months to see if the level is rising.
Preferably take this product with some vitamin C or juice, for better absorption, and avoid coffee, tea, or dairy around the time of intake.
I currently take 1 capsule per day but I am still experiencing sweating and fatigue. I am 31 weeks pregnant; is it safe to take an additional capsule?
On 28 october 2025 by Customer serviceYou can generally continue using Solgar Gentle Iron, but only increase the dosage in consultation with your midwife or doctor.
Have your iron levels checked to determine if you actually need more.
Take the capsule with a meal and some vitamin C for optimal absorption.
I suffer from heavy and painful periods. Can I use this type of iron only during menstruation, a week before and a week after?
On 28 october 2025 by Customer serviceSolgar's Gentle Iron (20 mg iron bisglycinate) is a mild, well-absorbed form of iron that supports the body when iron levels are low. Since iron deficiency often develops gradually due to blood loss during menstruation, it is usually not sufficient to use the supplement only a week before and a week after menstruation. In cases of heavy periods, it may be wise to use the supplement daily, at least for a longer period, to rebuild your iron reserves properly. You may then be able to reduce the dosage in consultation with your GP or nutritionist. It's important to regularly check your iron levels in the blood.
A few tips for optimal use:
- Preferably take the supplement with a meal.
- Combine it with vitamin C (e.g. a glass of orange juice) for better absorption.
- Avoid taking it at the same time as coffee, tea, or dairy, as these can reduce absorption.
- If symptoms persist or if you experience fatigue, have your iron levels (ferritin and haemoglobin) checked by your GP.
How much vitamin B6 is in this Gentle Iron? Kind regards, Hanneke Schipper.
On 08 may 2025 by Customer serviceGentle Iron contains no vitamin B6.
Hello, is it possible to open the capsule and, for example, mix it with yoghurt? Kind regards.
