Why is ferrous gluconate said to be easier to absorb than ferrous sulphate?
That makes sense. Are there any other benefits to taking ferrous gluconate over ferrous sulphate?
Yes, in addition to being easier to absorb and having fewer side effects, some studies have shown that ferrous gluconate may be more effective in treating iron deficiency anemia in certain patient populations. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before making any changes to your iron supplement regimen.
