FAQs

A. Both ferrous fumarate (C4H2FeO4, FW = 169.9, Fe = 55.85) and ferrous succinate (C4H6O4.Fe, FW = 173.85, Fe = 55.85) are good sources for iron (Fe) supplementation. Ferrous fumarate and ferrous succinate supply about same amount of elemental iron per molecule (32.87% vs. 32.13%). Research has shown that ferrous fumarate and ferrous succinate are highly available iron sources as compare to ferrous saccharate or ferrous pyrophosphate.1The iron in Ultimate Iron is from ferrous succinate. It provides 25 mg/capsule of elemental iron.
