Hi all,
Some bloodwork I got done showed a low ferritin level. I'm not anemic but I do need to supplement to build up my Iron stores.
Anyone else supplement? Dr wants me to take 325mg Iron Sulfate a day. I'm looking for recommendations for supplements. I prefer non-heme because I am a vegetarian. I know supplement companies are of varying quality so any guidance would be appreciated, even a dis-recommendation.
As a sidebar, two of the symptoms are night sweats and restless leg syndrome. I'm really hoping getting my Iron stores back up to normal will relieve some of those for me!
