    Amazing Product

    This is the best iron I have ever taken - no constipation or nausea taking on an empty stomach!

Questions? We have answers.

Thoughtful inquiry is needed.

What makes Needed’s Prenatal Iron different than others?

We offer an Iron bound to Glycine as Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate (Ferrochel™) in 13.5mg capsules that allow you to more easily dose up or down as you need. Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate is a mineral chelate in which Iron is bound to two Glycine amino acid molecules. It is easily absorbed by the body and, unlike most other Iron forms, it minimizes constipation and gastric upset.

Why do you offer Iron separately from your Prenatal Multi?

We recommend taking Iron away from our Prenatal Multi for optimal absorption. We also recommend taking only as much as you need (some mothers do not need to supplement), as too much supplemental Iron can generate oxidative stress and alter the gut microbiome. Talk to your health practitioner about testing your Iron status before, during, and after pregnancy, and supplement if you are falling short. Our Iron is bound to Glycine for better absorption and digestive comfort.*

How do I know how much Iron I need?

Start by scrolling up and reviewing our dosage chart. This chart was created in partnership with a group of women’s health practitioners that regularly test women's Iron levels before, during, and after pregnancy. Your medical provider can also test your ferritin levels to help you determine the dosage you need.

Is your Iron vegan, allergen free, and Non-GMO?

Our Iron is vegan and non-GMO. Free of 9 major allergens, gluten, and unwanted fillers.

Can I customize my subscription based on my monthly Iron needs?

Our subscriptions are flexible, you can easily adjust it to receive your Iron at a different cadence than our standard monthly delivery. Email us at hello@thisisneeded.com if you need help.
