Talk:Iron supplement

message: Under the section Medical Uses the phrase "such as vitamin B12/folate deficiency" is either confusing or wrong.  B12 is not folate.  Folate is B6.  I do not have a background in this subject so I cannot correct or clarify it (i.e. I don't know if it is B12, B6 or both). 124.171.52.215 (talk) 09:29, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

message: Heme Iron Polypeptide = HIP seems like a scam, so Wikipedia article should be corrected: 
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25953602
This search yielded three clinical studies. The safety and efficacy of HIP was evaluated in a total of 161 subjects with anaemia and various stages of CKD. HIP was consistently associated with lower ferritin values when compared with traditional iron supplementation. 
Moreover, not approved by EFSA in Europe for several reasons, so HIP is not sold in Europe.

4 common iron preparations are available: ferrous sulphate, ferrous sulphate exsiccated, ferrous gluconate, and ferrous fumarate. No one compound seems better than the others.
Iron chelates have also been assessed. Inulin, a natural fructose polymer, can be chelated with iron to enhance iron absorption within the colon. Similar results were reported for bisglycinate iron and liposomal iron.

message: The page could be organised better. The types and distinction between the iron salts are not explained. I also heard of metallic iron addition in processed food products. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Falsht (talk • contribs) 00:16, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
