- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2024
- Hey everyone! So, I found out in Nov 2022 I was suffering from severe iron deficiency after getting my lab results from my yearly physical. Learning this news put many things into perspective with my health, diet, and most of all, HAIR! Not only am I recovering my hair, but I was also recovering my health and mental health as well and learned this year that its crucial for me to take care of myself in all areas, and I'm here to share that journey with you and the things I will learn along the way.
With many recommendations from the comment section and online research, I started taking liquid Geritol on July 21, 2023.
Need some Geritole? Here is where I got mine - bit.ly/3qOf4ai

The cure for brittle hair, low iron, and making you fertile as hell. 😂
WAIT A MINUTEEEEE! You mean to tell me I'm going to get PREGGAKNAT? LOL
@@ulovemegzwhy are you this way?😂😂😂🤦🏽♀️
This what I heard too fertile Myrtle!!
And it do!! 😂
There is definitely a baby in every bottle. I’m a witness times 2. 😂
No cap Geritol works for me it gives me energy don’t worry about that old stigma attached to it I give it to my son too and he’s 17 Dr Sebi told us black people we need iron
If you're not taking copper too its pointless to use iron.
@@meghanmisaliarwhy is that?
@@voquoncarter924Copper, iron & zinc all need each other to synthesise & be used by the bodies cella
This is a cure for infertility😂😂... My baby was 14...They told me i had endometriosis and couldn't have kids again. I took Geritol for one month and had 3 more babies back to back.
( not medically approved)... But definitely something to think about.😂
Hi please tell me did you use the pills or the liquid or both?
@@appleifc pills
Bless you ❤and your family
@@appleifcan taking the liquid trying to conceive wish me luck🙌🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️
@@melissamorgan8034 Good luck!
SHE IS NOT LYING, THIS WILL GROW YOUR HAIR, the catch? Geritol taste like rusted pennies, thee absolute worse taste in my life.
It taste like rusted Pennies and Stale Communion wine 😭
😂😂😂 cuz I know I popped a few in my mouth as a kid 😭
I stated using a month ago because my hair was shedding like crazy I’m iron deficient as well it has made a huge difference in my energy and the amount of hair shed also thanks for telling us about the Affirm reconstructor it has also helped dramatically with my hair ❤
Aw thank you so much and thank you for sharing. Glad everything is working out well. :)
I am a certified Natural health consultant and I agree vitamins are needed, but take a blood test first then let your physician determine the amount of milligrams.
COVID and stress can definitely take a toll on the immunity and I'm glad as a health practitioner ( I'm seeing folk taking care of themselves).
This is crazy. My mom always recommended this supplement to people with energy and low iron issues.
I'm so glad I got to the root of the issue!
It is!!! I started taking liquid geritol 8-10 months postpartum to combat the shedding and low iron. It works more energy hair thicket nails healthier and skin glowing.
You got me excited now!!! Congratulations!
This comment came right on time 🙏
@@ulovemegz😂❤❤❤
I haven’t heard that name in yearsssssss. I remember the older people taking it. Now I am one of the older people.😂
Same😂
This comment right here!! 😂😂😂
Me 2 😂😂
Damn right
That part😂
You know what I've been taking this vitamin for months and I have noticed my hair is THICK AF!!! I had been wondering what I've done differently even my daughters hair I can barely get in a ponytail because its soooo thick and I've been giving her those vitamins too, they work!!
Where do you buy please?
@@lifeofrozetta6261 I got mine on Amazon
Before taking this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: iron overload disorder (such as hemochromatosis, hemosiderosis), use/abuse of alcohol, liver problems, stomach/intestinal problems (such as ulcer, colitis), vitamin B12 deficiency (pernicious anemia).
@@lalaess2426 Thank you none of that applies to me.
You mean the tablets?
I just started taking the tablet a month ago for my low iron at my yearly check-up this year - it has improved my sleep tremendously. I sleep like a newborn baby 😂 energy levels, haven’t noticed a difference yet.
Me too. My sleep is great but I'm still waiting on the energy boost
Girl yesssss…..the energy level is crazy I love it grows my hair and boost my energy..no more biotin this Gerotol is all y’all. I kid you not!
👀Older women swear by this…but also as a way to improve fertility😁 It is also amazing for anemia though. You may want to consider increasing your Vit C (or adding a supplement) for better iron absorption. I’m glad it seems to be working for you though😊
Great point!👌🏽
*Caution* : Since it's taking iron every day, try to drink *a lot* of water to avoid consequences of constipation. (Number of pounds in weight and divide it by 2 = number of ounces to drink each day to avoid it). Iron *WILL* make you constipated and may cause a painful rectal fissure, that rips every time you have a bowel movement if you become too constipated. (Try Colace as a stool softener if needed as well).
Thanks
Or castor oil, it helps with digestion, stools and has T11 cells for immune system.
Or take it with orange juice
@@JayJay-tt9dc You could. But drinking enough water tremendously helps your circulatory system, liver, kidneys, spleen, plus the three organs that are often neglected (hair, skin, and nails). There's a great benefit to helping your whole body by drinking enough water.
Probiotics and fiber help along with the water
I also am anemic, lost a lot of my hair a few years ago and my hair texture even started growing out thin and straighter. I started taking iron pills and it grew back normal but ended up cutting it short because of the damage that was already done. It grew back nicely. I'm still working on getting my hair even longer than it's ever been before, to past waist length (it's close). I just started taking geritol also to help keep up my iron and see what it does for my hair. I also started taking collagen powder to see what effect that has on me.
Thank you fro sharing. How long did it take from starting iron for your hair to start growing back in? Get back to normal growth. I am in the same boat right now with the straight, thin hair growth. Thank you x
Add Sea moss also.
What brand sea moss?
Have you also tried incorporating more iron rich foods in your diet? Three times a week I make an iron rich smoothie with beets. Steam them with the skin on and when they cool down, peel them (you can use gloves). Add one or two beets to a blender, then I add mangoes, peaches, strawberries or guavas. I like fruits with a strong flavour so you can't taste the beets and then add fruit juice or milk.
But heme iron which is what caused hair loss, fatigue or anemia is only found in animal food like red meat or sea food like mussles. Eating fruits or vegetables will not improve anemia or iron storage. That is why many vegan especially female have to give up on that diet because they are unable to get enough iron.
Ahh thank you for this Sis 💓
Ooooo.. this sounds good!! Imma try this!! Thank you girl!
Hey beautiful lady how are y'all doing I am well frist time watching RUclips channel thanks for sharing blessings ❤️🙏
Fruit juice or milk 🤔kits add water
Megs… The Geritol is the the truth. I used it along with a hair vitamin a few years back after a bad haircut and it works 😊
Ooooh thats so good to hear!!!
@@ulovemegz Please do a follow up video and let us know how it’s working for you. I’m about to add it to my diet again 😀
I use Geritol because I'm elderly,but it DOES work for brittle dry thin hair!!
Thank you. I just started back taking it. This time I'm eating a tangerine, for the Vitamin C, to help it hopefully absorb, in my body, and with a meal. I drink alot of water.
I’ve been iron deficient due to heavy cycles for decades, and I recently switched from traditional iron supplements to blood builder by MegaFood. I like it a lot better because it doesn’t cause constipation and it gets the job done.
Yes, it works.
I’ve been hearing great things about blood builders
Might try that
Which blood builder are u using
The Megafoods blood builder is phenomenal.
It is working for me. I started taking it the beginning of Feb 2024. My hair had grown an inch already. I am deficient in iron. So, while my hair is growing I have energy too. I also use the best hair products for my low porosity hair. Just today I had someone say to me "girl your hair is growing nicely".
Ave you Noticed any difference in your period?
Hello have you noticed any difference in your period?
Which hair products you use love
I too had to have infusions due to severe anemia. My doctor told me one danger is that my organs could have shut down (yikes). All I knew was that I was always tired but couldn't sleep. I couldnt take the stairs because I was drained. And I craved ice alot.
But when my levels became normal I felt AMAZING. The desire to chew ice stopped. I had loads of energy: I ran up stairs instead of taking the escalators, my sleep became deep and I woke up refreshed. For one moment I thought that maybe I could fly. 😂😂
I have low blood and love chewing ice😔
@@aladynamedSusanWhen my levels were low I chewed ice too but be careful because you can damage your teeth real bad. Get the Geritol sis. It raised my levels quick!
@@totallyyahware6840hi ,did you take the liquid or the pills?
Hi Megs! Ive taking Geritol (pill version) for 2 months now. I cant tell if my hair is growing however my brazillians dont last as long as they use to. My technician even noticed. Ive always had these random little hairs that pop up on my chin and now I constantly plucking them. Drives me crazy! So it does work on hair growth. I just notice it in other places more. 🤷🏽♀️
Oooooh I seee! Thank you so much for sharing. I'm going to keep an eye out on that too.
I hate the chin hairs
Oh no, I don't need my chin and cooch hair to grow any faster😢
@@QueenOfTheDamnedlmao
@@QueenOfTheDamnedyooooo😂😂😂💀💀
It was called a baby in the bottle. My mom have 5 Geritol babies, all over 8 .lbs at birth. 😊
Exactly, my Mother told me about it a long time ago
haha someone who was having problems conceiving took Geritol and SSS Tonic and conceived quite quickly after lol
@@dw29376 which one is the sss tonic what the name in full and where you buy it
I'm hearing more and more about this! Congratulations on your healthy bouncing baby!!!
Yeppers. I would not recommend it for children especially at 12 years old and or under 18 years old and the reason being it will increase your desire to have sex. Trust me taking this over the counter med that was given to me by my mother increased my desire at age 12 to want to have sex even though, "I didn't give into my desires," it was a struggle. And still at age 12 I eventually stopped taking it and the desire went away within two weeks or so, afterwards too.
I've been taking it for 3 months now... i notice reduced shedding and to be fully transparent, I had a thinning crown that was the size of a half dollar. It was so bald i would joke and call myself george jefferson. Anywho, after taking this my crown is noticeably fuller even my derm is impressed. I stopped need those painful injections. She asked me what I did differently, I told her i started taking prenatals and geritol. The prenatal were recommended by my primary care doctor as a woman of a particular age who is ready for children.
Juicing low glycemic fruits + veggies and pill form geritol have improved my health dramatically. I forget to eat sometimes. 🤷♀️
With only 18mg of iron in this , if you are "severely" deficient, you need more to get your stores up. This would be good as a supplement or maintenance but you will need to get the pill (65 mg) and take for a good 6 weeks first. I'm iron deficient /anemic and I recently drop so low I was dizzy and faint. Talk to your practioner about the amount of iron you need. 😊
Name of pills ?
@@Marvin-ut4xs C'mon now. Just Google iron pills 65mg at your local pharmacy.
My hair was shedding, my curls turn straight and so thin. This was happening for years all my blood work turned out fine until my doctor recommend to check my ferritin level. It was 13 this makes lots of sense. I did more reach ferritin(iron) needs to be at 70 for hair to stop shedding and to thicken up. Also eat more red meat. Also, limit caffeine intake. It significantly reduces the absorption of iron. Hope this helps I’m still struggling but we need to keep going.
Boo, I got this same phone call from my physician a couple of years ago. I have chronic anemia, but I guess it had gotten so bad I had to have five weeks of IV iron therapy. It was so bad she wanted to admit me, but I refused. Now I was not taking my iron as I have been told on so many occasions, but now I do. Unfortunately, the reason for me is I have always had a heavy cycle and have a few small fibroids, which don’t help. I will say after consistently taking the iron and vitamin C to help it absorb I have felt great. I even got the color back in my skin. When I say I was casper the ghost pale chile! Thanks for sharing your story this really can help folks. ❤
Oh noooo! I'm so sorry that you had to go through and I'm experiencing the same thing with fibroids and heavy periods to where you want to stay in bed. I've been taking vitamin C also and have noticed some changes with our I feel also. I'm happy you have things figured out and are starting to feel normal. Thank you so much for sharing because this is helpful for me also! Sending many hugs.
@@ulovemegz you’re welcome and big hugs!
Same with me. I recently got one IV Infusion, but I need another one scheduled asap for 1,000mg. I'm not sure if I have fibroids or not, but your situation sounds a lot like mine.
@patienceisavirtue I had liquid iron from an IV too. It made my feett swell up lol
@ashleyromero8870 stg I think every BW has the same issue. It's scary!
Mix it with a little orange juice to help with the taste. Also, vitamin C helps enhance iron absorption. Try Liposomal vitamin C
When i miz iron with orange juice it gives me horrible gas, its bad. Is this normal?
@@tjones5399
Try pineapple juice. If that does not work, just drink water and take a vitamin c supplement
That's how I take it to mask the taste
An even cheaper method for this is Ferrous Fumarate iron tablets, just take them with Orange Juice and not on an empty stomach. You'll feel right as rain and your hair will GROW. Plus we need to start taking Vitamin D and need to up our sun intake.
Yessss I’ve been getting out much more lately! My color is starting to come back too 🤌🏾
@@ulovemegz Oh my goodness thank you for replying back to my comment, I am so glad you did. I am glad you've been getting your vitamin D levels up. Thank you for your hair care tips and videos, I appreciate it. God bless you Megs :)
Yes but remember do not take iron with vit d or calcium it can inhibit the absorption of iron. If you do wait 2hrs before or 2 hrs after you’ve taken it.
@@lovelyone3174 Thank you my love. 🙏🏾
I noticed that your hair looked very thin, but didn't want to say anything as people get offended easily. My hair is just like yours, I take iron supplements daily for anaemia. Maybe check your thyroid also as this can cause thin hair too.
Thank you so much!!! Yeaaaah I KNEW something was wrong and glad I'm starting to get to the bottom of it with my health. I've never had really thick hair but THIS was different. I'm due to get my next physical this Nov and will make sure to get that checkout as well but from my last physical my thyroid was normal.
@@ulovemegz Glad you followed your instinct. Health is wealth.❤
I remember having so much shedding that everywhere I sat there was hair left behind me. The iron made a big difference in my quality of life, I take megafood blood builder. I may try this liquid on that you showed, as I like the B Vits it has in it. Wishing you all the best.❤
for those curious there have been tons of studies done on the importance of B vitamins when taking iron and dealing with heavy menstrual bleeding. Its mind blowing
I TOOK GERITOL FOR 5 DAYS IN FEBRUARY IT'S MARCH NOW AND I'M STILL BLEEDING BLOOD CLOTS EVERYDAY. NOT A HEAVY FLOW BUT UGH!! WHAT SHOULD I DO??
@@t1m3z_hard_w0rld_chang1nmaybe you have fibroids that’s what makes a lot of bleeding. I had to go to the hospital for a transfusion because of that. Take care.
@t1m3z_hard_w0rld_chang1n see your doctor! I was experiencing the same thing. I bled for two months straight. 2015 I had to have a surgery that was supposed to elevate or stop it, it did neither. I also had to have a blood transfusion because I loss so much blood. 2021, same surgery, same results minus the transfusion. Tired, thinning hair (used to be long, thick & healthy) FINALLY I said NO MORE!! I TOLD my Doctor, moving forward, the ONLY thing we are talking about is hysterectomy!! Had that done in October...BEST DAY EVER!!! Cramps would be soooo bad, flow was sooo heavy , blot clots that I could feel when they passed & Lord I would be like, is that my liver 😢 (sorry to be so explicit) don't wait too much longer. I had a male doctor & a female doctor viewed my chart, thank God for her!! She told him, "yeah it's time for a permanent solution for her!" I cried when I heard her say that because that excessive bleeding was causing my organs to not receive the proper amount of oxygen as well. I apologize for being long winded, however, don't just keep going like that. A full hysterectomy might not be the answer for you. I was 53 when I got it done, on the verge of menopause, however, to be considered in full menopause, you have to be one full year without a cycle & I didn't see that happening. I had my tubes tied in my 30s, so pregnancy wasn't a fact in my decision. My life & health were. Talk with your doctor.

thank you so much and thank you so much for watching!!!
Unfortunately oral iron doesn’t do anything for me. I just finished my 5th iron infusion so hopefully I’ll start feeling better soon ❤
Oral iron won’t absorb well without being accompanied by Vitamin C. Get you some iron with Vit C already incorporated into it…it will work just fine. I got a couple from Amazon and they’ve been working great.
Try that, I guarantee your iron will be up in a week!
@@REDSKINTYGUH11 unfortunately didn’t work for me either. I’m sure your recommendations could help others.
@@notjustaprettyface didn’t. IV iron was my last option before hospitalization. I’m sure it could work for others though
My homegirl just told me she only had a third of the blood she needed to function and had to get the infusions. So happy she caught it when she did. Happy you're on your journey as well
My hair was shedding like crazy! I was already talking vitamin D3 and B complex vitamins with extra folate due to be anemic, so I knew it couldn’t have been that. So I started taking low dose iron and within a couple of weeks the excessive shedding stopped. I think Geritol comes in tablet form as well. I am happy you found something that worked for you. Great informative video.
What was the low dosage,
@@princessaluchi8924 I use 45mg iron tablet. Certain brands also have a 28mg tablet. I would start with the 28mg tablet. However I highly recommend seeing a physician before starting on any vitamin/supplement regimen.
Girl I only literally found out that black and brown women are more likely to be iron deficient… cue me fighting sleep at work, started taking iron tablets the difference is insane….!
I wonder why just black and brown folks are most deficient?
I'm scared to take geritol 😂. My mom always told me it makes you pregnant.
The gold lips and earrings are giving me early 90s. I love it!
Thank youuuu I love wearing a nude glossy lip 🤌🏾
Geritol has been around for at least 6 decades. I’m 75 and remember it was recommended for senior citizens. Who could’ve anticipated this recent craze for its potential hair growth capabilities? Go figure. In all honesty it’s cheaper to buy iron pills. Geritol is not cost effective at the dosages in one bottle. You can go through a $12 bottle in two to three wks. Just saying.
Please do a update on this 💕 im glad to see u still going strong with youtube. Im about to start my hair journey again and you are one of the girls i use to watch 10 years ago when i 1st started my hair journey as a kid. Im glad to see that u are still well ! Stay blessed beautiful
Make sure you add Magnesium, just magnesium at least 800 mg before going to bed. It will help with the bowls! It works for me, ask your doctor 🙏🏽
What type of magnesium?
@@mealprep4weightloss078 citrate/sulfate
800,mg??

Come tell us more please
I used to take Geritol when I lived in New York back in the day, it works wonders nothing like the old school remedies. When I moved to Florida I completely forgot about Geritol, thank you for reminding me, I will be going back to taking it asap. Florida it's always advertising all these other different vitamins but they never tell you about vitamins that really helps which as you can see all you need is one Geritol a day, Florida will have you taken about 10 different vitamins😂😂😂😂😂😂
Geritol owes you a commission 😂 I just ordered some❤ thanks
Just started taking Geritol today! My dad had an opened bottle in the kitchen cabinet. My mom also use to take it back the day. It's definitely old school. Can't wait to feel the results on how it works. 😁🥰
Be careful it’ll get you pregnant
That Geritol may be why you're here today 😂
This just popped up on my feed and I am glad it did. I don’t have any issues with low iron or anemia, but this is always good to know because I’m always taking supplements to supplement the foods that I can’t eat or I may not eat or what have you. Someone mentioned to get your thyroid checked, and I am a huge advocate of that. I would definitely recommend that but more specifically tell your doctor that you would like a thyroid functioning test. This test will check your T3, T4, and TSH levels. The tests measures the amount of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroxine (T4), and triiodothyronine (T3) in your blood. This test is different than the basic test that they run during your annual check up and will not detect that your thyroid is malfunctioning.
I know this from experience personally, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and I went 10 years without it being detected .
it doesn’t hurt to have a test done and it will save you years of trying to figure out why is my body malfunctioning and no one is telling you if that’s the case.
Congratulations on your channel. Peace and blessings ❤❤❤
I have some of the same symptoms as you....always tired, never sleeping through out the entire night etc. I just started taking Geritol tablets for about three weeks....I have seen an immediate change in my sleep...I sleep throughout the night without waking up ever. I am waiting to see how it affects my hair, skin etc
OMGGGG! YES! I knowww!
My grandmother gave me and siblings geritol all the time. In the islands it’s very popular
Did you all have long hair?
Cook your food in iron skillets.
Also used Ferrous Sulfate 365mg. #Iron Supplements
This stuff will turn you into fertile Myrtle with the quickness too 😅
I only clicked on this video because the face is facing...flawless...baby that face was beaten by the gods. ❤❤❤ Cute and I love it!!! Ok, I just had an iron infusion because my blood was so low...it immediately cured my craving for ice. Geritol is good. We used to take it back in the days to gain weight, plus they said, it will get you pregnant. Lol! I stop taking it years ago because the formula change, and the alcohol in it was too much.
Girl I take SSS Tonic! It’s stronggggg. My new growth be coming in something fierce
Well what the heck is SSS tonic? I needs to know. Lol
Same here love @Itsgorgeouseverything •
Yep! It's right up there with Geritol.
@@divakim206 high potency iron and B12. It’s like triple the dosage of Geritol so make sure you check your iron levels if you do take it!
SSS Tonic also has alcohol in it. Taste isn't great at all.
My homegirl said she took Geritol to get pregnant, it was a while ago but Y’all be safe.
Oh my goodnesssss! lol
did it work am low on iron and also trying
Please ladies, especially black woman ASK YOUR DOCTOR FOR A MRI AND AN ULTRASOUND TO CHECK FOR FIBROIDS.
This causes heavy bleeding leading to low iron. Please check regularly!!
AGREED! I got mine done and everything is MAKING SENSE NOW LIKE EVERYTHING!
I did both of those after my yearly check up and my doc said he felt something. I did an ultrasound and they found an m and m size fibroid. Ive never really had heavy period but irregular periods since young. I notice when I water fast and then do keto diet it sorta regulates my period, when I eat junk, it's a few days late but for the most part, I'm in normal period range. However, I'm definitely gonna try this supplement. Been contemplating if I really want a kid though 🥴
Hi Megan. I highly recommend Rainbow Light Prenatal One Multivitamins. They are tablets. No sugar. And, in addition to what is in Geritol, you will get your Biotin, folic acid and more!
OOOOUHHHH! I was just looking at those too!!!
Are you allowed to take prenatal if not pregnant? I thought that wasn't good
@@kittensmitten3287of course you can. If it’s healthy enough for you and a baby. It’s healthy enough for you by yourself.
Yes. The main difference between a multivitamin and prenatal is the amount of folic acid and iron, which IMO, makes them superior.
Yea it's great I was taking it for iron deficiency and low and behold I come up pregnant so use your own judgment
My Auntie had two sets of twins. My grandmother said it was that Geritol. 😂 My uncle thought they wasn't going to have any children. Well, two sets of twin boys later I guess she needed nerve pills.
Wowwwww
I’m from Guyana 🇬🇾 and we use S.S.S tonic, Feroglobin liquid, etc.
What else do you use?
@@lauraartis5452it has one called Ferrol .
Can you advise what is SSS tonic?
Please keep up with your health. Aloe is a great thickening and lengthing shampoo
Cut out soda all together. Especially coke. Taking multi vitamins I believe 3 times a week. Steam Broccoli, don't overcook any veggies.
Thanks soooo much for this video! It’s crazy but because I’ve been without health insurance for about a year now, I FORGOT I’m iron deficient! I’m weak ALL the time, just so tired and sleepy and experience constipation, and dizziness almost on the daily. I have to move slow so the getting up and down because I’m prone to motion sickness. Darn my sensitive body haha. But how silly of me to forget to buy another bottle!!! You don’t know but you helped me out big time! I had no idea it could be one of the main reasons my once healthy relaxed hair broke off! Ugh! Thanks!
I’m a Geritol baby ❤
I am also iron deficient I take the pill form because I was scared I would like the taste of the liquid version lol so far I haven’t had any of the symptoms I use to before so seems to be working well, my hair is also growing, but I’m scared for it to get thicker lol that was not my intention of taking the vitamin lol my hair is already thick 😭🤣 also, this geritol contains a different type of iron that I heard it easier for the body to absorb, and also more effective!
I am severely anemic and was told I needed a blood transfusion. I've taken iron supplements, but they barely work. Chlorophyll helped slightly, but I'll try geritol. I always thought it was just for the elderly, but Im getting closer to that age. 😂 I would also love to be a mom, so all the comments about it increasing your fertility is a plus. 😁
Edit: Also, you are beautiful, and I love your make-up. Thanks
I was going to try this, but I read the ingredients and was disappointed to find it has a large amount of sugar and 12% alcohol. I don't see how that can possible lead to increased hair growth. Anyway, the sugar content alone wasn't a win in the wellness category.
Gurrrrl, back away from that liquid sugar, there got to be a better choice. How come your doctor didn't recommend something?
Doctors recommend it and have for decades when other. Supplements don't help. They also recommend Flintstone vitamins 😂
This was in one of the recommendations lol
@@ulovemegz Oh wow!
Everything you described is me. Let me get some geritol baby! And you look very GOODT in this video Ms. Megz! You represent us petite girlies so well! 😍
I just started the Geritol capsules in June, and have also been taking iron twice a day for the last 2yrs.... Hoping for a miracle 😂🤞🏾
2 years? No results? Younean tge Ger tablets

❤Liquid GERITOL my favorite oldie but goody go to for iron. Yes the taste and constipation is not the best 🙃. However, this iron plus vitamin B supplements works like a charm. Proven with my lab work👍🏽
Can't find geritol around here
When I took the pills I didn’t crave salt and sour candy
I've noticed my cravings have gone down also!
@@ulovemegz I might need to get back on them it was definitely the geritol my craving were gone
Please look into retinol and copper for iron deficiency. Consuming iron can be toxic.
This is true. Too much iron is not good
Getting this for my daughter that’s vegetarian n myself most women have low iron
I tried taking Geritol before but it gave me muscle weakness, so I had to stop, please do your research.
Wow I never heard that before. Do you know the reason it can cause that?
Maybe some of your levels were already optimal?
old school always work, from hair grease to geritol lol my gmom, mom, dad aunties and uncles used geritol. good stuff.
My brother is a Geritol baby
Its funny to me that people act like geritol got them pregnant lol . The man had nothing to do with it huh ? 😂
Nah but they do help make you a lot healthier thus inadvertently can help you get pregnant . I like the vitamins and they do help grow hair ! I take the pill version
I have low iron too and I take some iron pills from Walmart and it works for me and also idk about you but sometimes we love to eat ice.
No, I've been gatekeeping this for the longest time.😂 It's the only thing that I've been able to take daily. I've had to actually get infusions. This is what I take and it doesn't upset my stomach.
I used to use it when I was in highschool I use to drink orange juice when took it in the 90's
I put geritol in my orange juice. It tastes better
You should also try Floradix iron. It's also a liquid iron.
Feroglobin has more iron. See if you can use the IUD as well.
I got some geritol in my cabinet let me start taking em
Ooop 👀 welp!!
Edit: that's me, you are talking to me.
I use to take that back in the day and you do taste every single vitamin that's in there that's for sure 😵💫 try some spinach too
You really dooo! You’re so right lol
Thank you so much for this Meg! I am too an iron deficient girly
It does make you Uber hungry
Yes it is. Want to go the extra mile add SSS Tonic to it. You won't regret it.
Oooooh NOW that sounds interesting!
I couldn't find it in my area. I thought they discontinued it. Where did you purchase it?
@@oneflowerlover I order it from Amazon
About to order the sss tonic
Try the Hispanic section in walmarts health section
Have a piece of orange 🍊 after a spoonful right after and the taste will dicipate. Bye!
Go head on sis!! But I can’t….I just use tea rinses because my cooch will NOT push another baby out. Noooo sir😅
Relaxing hair growth geritol
Listen to Auntie - stay on top of your birth control if you’re going to use Geritol!!! IJS…😂
I take this vitamin to. My nails got stronger and long. I just cut them down. I was reading some of the comments from other YT. Some of the comments state about getting pregnant while taking the vitamin 😮. All I can say...glad it's a thing called birth control.
How long have you been taking Geritol? I knooow everyone is saying that lol.
@ulovemegz For about 4 months now.
@@Mrz.Lakimaooooh niceee
I used to buy the liquid on Amazon but they disappeared during the beginning of covid.
Interesting how they disappeared during that time. Thanks for sharing.
Covid will make your hair fall out... ots been heavily documented. And low iron on top of that... yikes!
I didn't know about being stopped up using this but it makes sense now. 🤔
