A member asked:
I have celiac disease and feel fatigue often. i have noticed iron supplement helps. can i take regularly iron + vitc supplement? signs of excess iron?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Celiac disease: You can take it, but should really be checked to see if you have any iron deficiency anemia issues. Bc if you don't then there is no need to take the iron, which can cause GI side effects.
