1
Tip of the Week
All your life you've heard that you should take iron. Of course, you always heard that alligators lived in the sewers and you didn't believe that either. The jury's still out on the alligators (because the gators ate the jury), but evidence suggests you don't have to have iron in your multi vitamins to have complete multi vitamins or the best multi vitamins. You can actually have too much iron. Women's multivitamins in particular might want to omit iron, because the body has a limited capacity to secrete iron--unlike, for example, vitamin C. If you are post-menopausal and get too much iron in that multi vitamin supplement, you can experience:Weight lossAbdominal swellingFatigueWeakness
And that's just for starters. Makes the gators seem less nightmarish, doesn't it? Do yourself a favor. If you're over 50, don't go in the sewers, and take complete multivitamins without iron.
