Why is it good to drink iron pills with orange juice?

Trivia, avoid OJ: Iron may be slightly better absorbed from an acid medium, but ph powerfully controlled by our stomach ; especially small intestines, where iron absorbed, thus you are being marked nonsense - quite common. The bigger issue is that orange juice is high sugar, as much or more than a sugar soft drink ; is not health, though marketing as healthy to sell the stuff. Can't sell frozen oranges. Go hflc.
