Description
IRON IS THE MOST COMMON NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY IN THE WORLD!* If you find yourself unable to focus, battling fatigue, have feelings of muscle weakness, or just can’t get warm, you might be low in iron. And you’re not alone: The CDC reports approximately 10% of U.S. women between 12-49 years of age are iron deficient. MegaFood® Blood Builder® is a best-selling product for a reason: it's clinically shown to increase iron levels and reduce fatigue without common gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea or constipation†.* Designed to build the blood, we make it with real food like beets and organic oranges, plus folic acid and B12 for healthy red blood cell production, and vitamin C to support iron absorption.* Oh, and it’s gentle enough to take any time of day, even on an empty stomach.

Q: How many carbohydrates per serving?
submitted by Diamante - 3 months ago
A: Thank you for reaching out to us here at MegaFood. In a typical MegaFood serving (aside from gummies or chews) which delivers nutrients together with a range of foods, the calorie content per tablet will be relatively low - likely less than 3 calories per tablet. Please note, a carb consists of 4 calories. There is approximately 0.1g of carbs in Blood Builder. Sincerely, The MegaFood Team

I highly recommend this supplement for anyone who needs extra iron without the negative side effects of other supplements.

After 1 week I already notice that my energy levels are improving! I don't feel as lethargic and don't feel the dizziness either. I break my pills in half- so half pill per day so that I can make up the remainder of iron via my food intake. I also didnt know that low b12 can contribute to fatigue so its nice that this product has b12 too.

Useless - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
I think over all this is a better product than most because you are getting the iron from natural sources but I will say since it doesn’t have any of that artificial codings on it it has a strong iron taste almost immediately. Over all though I would recommend this product over store brand pills.
Great product!

This iron has helped bring my levels up and NEVER upsets my stomach:) (I do take it with food, though, just in case.) I used it daily until my iron levels came up, and now just use it during my monthly cycle, and when I am low on energy. I suggest this product to customers looking for a gentle, effective iron.

4 out of 5 stars
Diamante - 3 months ago
My daughter and I are trying these for the first time starting today. My ferritin is 11 (storage iron) but my hemoglobin is normal level 13 (circulating iron). I will come back and update in 8 weeks to see if this product increases my ferritin. First impressions: I took it in the morning on an empty stomach with water and waited an hour before eating or drinking anything else. I had no stomach issues which was nice as I usually don’t tolerate iron supplements very well. My daughter took after a meal with fresh squeezed orange juice and she also experienced no stomach issues. Just to throw another recommendation out there for those that may struggle with iron supplementation due to absorption issues or digestive disturbances…Floravital by Floradix is also really good as well (instant energy boost when consumed with fresh squeezed orange juice on an empty stomach) it’s just expensive, stains teeth, messy, taste like you’re consuming grape flavored pennies (lol 🤣) can be hard to find, needs to be refrigerated and used within 30 days of opening so I was in the market for an alternative just in case I can’t get Floravital (gluten and yeast free version). I will come back and update my review in a couple months and display my new ferritin levels.
