Ferrofood® by Standard Process- Essential for Iron-Clad Health
As a holistic practitioner, I use Ferrofood® as a whole food-based supplement that provides support for healthy red blood cell formation and overall vitality. Its blend of iron, vitamin C, and other nutrients is derived from natural food sources, making it a safe and effective option for addressing iron-deficiency anemia and other related concerns.
Ferrofood® contains not only iron, but also supportive nutrients like vitamin B12, folic acid, and copper, which work together to optimize iron absorption and utilization in the body. This comprehensive approach aligns with my philosophy of addressing health concerns at their root cause rather than simply masking symptoms.
The following information is a summary and review based on Dr. Candy’s professional experience and recommendations. Any summary or statement has not been provided nor influenced by the manufacturer.

Dr. Candy and Other Practitioners Use Ferrofood® For:
- Iron-Deficiency Anemia: Ferrofood is an excellent supplement for individuals who have been diagnosed with iron-deficiency anemia, as it contains iron and other supportive nutrients that can help address this condition.
- Fatigue: Since Ferrofood supports energy production and vitality, individuals who experience fatigue or low energy levels may benefit from taking this supplement.
- Menstrual Irregularities: Women who experience heavy menstrual bleeding or other menstrual irregularities may benefit from taking Ferrofood to support healthy red blood cell formation and prevent iron deficiency.
- Pregnancy: Pregnant women have increased iron requirements, and Ferrofood can be a safe and effective way to support optimal iron levels during this time.(If you are pregnant or nursing, please check with your doctor to determine if you should be taking iron supplements.)
- Vegetarian or Vegan Diets: Individuals who follow vegetarian or vegan diets may have increased iron requirements, as iron from plant sources is less bioavailable than iron from animal sources. Ferrofood can be a safe and effective way to support optimal iron levels in these individuals.
Ferrofood® Side Effects:
Little to no side effects are reported for the majority of users. Some users mentioned a stomach ache when taken on an empty stomach. To avoid this, I recommend that patients always take this supplement with a meal.
Artificial iron supplements give iron a bad name when it comes to stomach discomfort. Synthetic (cheaply made), supplements can cause stomach pain and irritation. This doesn’t happen with Standard Process’ natural ingredients. The iron is delivered in a natural way, with all of the correct co-factors and enzymes needed to absorb and use iron.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS
What our patients say:
I bought Ferrofood after I was diagnosed with anemia. Within the first 4 weeks my health improved dramatically. My doc gave me 325MG iron pills which made me sick as a dog. I am now into month 3 of Ferrofood and my health has improved 100%. I would highly recommend this product over iron supplements.

I was told my iron was low 8 years ago with the pregnancy of my daughter. Iron pills have horrible side effects on my body. Standard process FerroFood is great, I take it with or without food, doesn't have that weird taste in your mouth, no constipation and it really helps regulate your iron. I highly recommend all their supplements. I was in my late 30's then, and in my mid 40's now- still works great.

This really works. My iron was low and my chiropractor gave me some then I purchased my own from here and they really help! Before this I was using another brand that my body didn't absorb at all.

I tend to become anemic during pregnancy and hemorrhage after birth, so I've been through a good variety of iron supplements to get my levels up and keep them there. This is the best one I've tried hands down. It doesn't cause constipation and it boosted my levels much quicker than any of the others I tried. Highly recommended.
