Thought I'd share this find.
I can only seem to manage to get about 50% of the daily iron I need through my diet so decided to try a supplement.
A friend who is studying nutrition recommended I look for "food based" vitamins as being more easy to digest than traditional vitamins.
The MegaFood brand has a "Women's One Daily" formula that contains 50% of daily iron and is food based and vegetarian.
I looked at every multivitamin jar in the store and this had the highest iron.
I found them at whole foods but various online retailers sell them too.
