Question 1

What's the difference between this bottle and the black bottle?

Accepted Answer

The is an excellent product with a lot of B vitamins in addition to a lot of iron. Just be sure you buy the softgels not the capsules.   The capsules have unwanted additives. The black bottle may have 90 count instead of 60.  You can take up to 3 softgels/day with something to eat.  Calculate the price per softgel to get the best deal.

Question 2

Are these vegetable based?

Accepted Answer

In response to the 1st answer, actually Heme iron from lean red meat, chicken, fish, liver, is much more absorable (30x more) then non heme iron from plant based. Heme iron is not only much easier to digest and absorb but causes a lot less digestive side effects like constipation, stomach cramps & nausea. I don’t know how one could state that non-heme is safer. Perhaps if your a vegetarian u would have no choice but overall heme is much better & why it is much more expensive, see ProFerrin brand (all heme iron, expensive but most effective). Wish there were more heme iron supplement options to bring price down some.

Question 3

I’ve bought this in the past and have been happy with it. But this time the product has a weird smell that was never ther before.. Should I return it?

Accepted Answer

I find that sometimes the softgels are smelly, very dark whereas they’re supposed to be a light brown inside a transparent capsule, and most recently misshapen. I return them when I get a bad batch. My assumption is that they’ve been stored at high temperatures, and I’m not sure that the ingredients are all still active. The good ones have been wonderful in clearing up my low iron, so I want the good stuff.

Question 4

Is the gelatin in the Hema-Plex softgel  (iron with essential nutrients) derived from beef or pork products?

Accepted Answer

I don't know. Did you look at the bottle picture for the ingredients?
