Ionic Liquid Iron Supplement (236 Servings) – Highest Absorption Rate Allows for Smaller Dose & Less Stomach Issues - Non-Flavored, Vegan, Ionically Charged, Earth-Sourced Minerals

I purchased this in hopes it would help my numbers when I donate plasma (on my second donation of the week, sometimes I have too low of iron that I get deferred).This has been great. I haven't been deferred since using it. I just add 5 little drops to maybe a shot glass of water and drink it quick. The taste is kinda yucky, but just have a chaser and you'll be fine.I previously read someone was upset theirs came in a plastic bottle, not sure if that was old, but mine is in a nice solid glass bottle. Very sturdy, dropped it a couple times and it hasn't broken.There is some very big discrepancy with the dosage tho between the bottle and the website. The bottle says 5 drops, but the website (which is not a good questionnaire like the paper that came with the bottle said, it was like 2 questions) said 20 drops! WOW! I don't need it for a medical condition, just assistance in plasma donation, so I stick to the 5 drops and it's been great since. Perhaps someone who has a medical condition might need 20, but not for my usage reason. It would be good to maybe see the website questionnaire adjusted. But logical reasoning is good to use depending on what you need it for.

I don’t know what the big deal is this is totally great for Iron supplement much better than pills. The best thing to do put drops into a glass of water. Slam it and Immediately take a chewable vitamin right after that or gum. But the chewable vitamins I take from Metagenics afterward clear the taste right out. it will leave a gag worthy aftertaste if you don’t find something you like that clears it. I would say when mixed with water it tastes like well water -if you’ve ever had well water it’s disgusting but I think most people could get it down. If I think about it tasting like blood that makes me sick so just don’t think about it. I don’t know who in their right mind would put the drops directly in mouth with nothing else I would puke. But mixed with water it’s totally do-able. I don’t usually leave reviews but the reviews are so all over the place I thought I should leave one. No constipation for me and no stomachache but I take it with food just in case. Definitely increase your fiber or take a Metamucil if you are freaked out about constipation.

If you add it to your juice, you'll ruin your juice.If you add it to your smoothie, you'll ruin it.If you add it to your food, you'll ruin it.It tastes DISGUSTING, like blood on steroids. Tastes like if you had 2 tongues in your mouth and someone cut both of them in half. Blood.But, the benefits are so INCREDIBLY AMAZING that, believe it or not, it's worth the cringe.What I have found is that, for the taste to disappear the fastest, I have to chew on Bubblemint flavored Orbit gum. So I clog my nose, drop 6 drops of the Iron onto my tongue, and still with my nose clogged, chew a piece of the gum for 10 seconds before unclogging my nose.This is the only way I can take the Iron and keep it down.Other flavors of gum didn't work for me -- only Bubblemint orbit, go figure.But I've been vegan since 2012 and I donate blood every 6 months, so my hemoglobin needs to be in check. This is, hands down, the BEST QUALITY iron I've ever taken.

Extremely bad taste and consistency. Made me sick after the first time taking it. I would NOT recommend.

This was my third purchase of this item. My neurologist says low levels of iron=low dopamine in the brain=non-genetic RLS. I had my iron levels tested prior to supplementing. I’ve tried a handful of iron supplements over the past eight years, but this brand brings my levels up faster than any of them. I put it in OJ and take it with Vit C for better absorption. RLS gone in two weeks!

Yes the taste is very noticeable. I add it to strong tasting juice like unsweetened cranberry juice and drink very quickly, but there is still a noticeable pleasant aftertaste, so I make sure and eat something after, too. That could be bearable if it weren’t so incredibly constipating. I’ve been taking iron in the form of iron bisglycinate for years, two capsules (so the dose is five times this liquid iron), and have never had constipation or upset stomach. Just a couple of days after starting 5 drops of this a day and my GI tract has come to a very painful standstill. I have never had issues with constipation in general so this is extremely disappointing.
