A member asked:
I am anemic and currently taking b12 and ferrous sulphate. is there any weightloss supplement i can take to increase weightloss?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most weight loss supplements are not healthy. If you are anemic , presumably from a low dietary intake of iron, increase leafy green vegetables which will also enhance weight loss if cooked with light oil or eat raw ( better). Be sure you know the cause of your anemia before entering into any weight loss regimen. Weight loss should be undertaken carefully for a sustainable change, not a quick fix
