- FINALLY the update we all were waiting for! Does Geritol REALLY work? Let's talk about it in this update! 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 last 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 learned along the way.
With many recommendations from the comment section and online research, I started taking liquid Geritol on July 21, 2023.

Cooking in a cast iron pot increases iron also
😮 WTH?! I was just looking in the mirror at my thinning edges and thought about my low iron, low vitamin D and made a mental note to educate myself on this. I was searching for weight loss on the treadmill, found your short on the topic and the next video was this! See how good God is???
yes he is!!
Please continue to talk about annual physicals. More younger people need to take advantage of this no cost or low cost preventative care. It's so you can know how your current self care impacts your health, catch issues before they need full scale medical support.
Agreed!!!
They don't nothing in my physical take my vitals and make me walk....no blood work
I been taking Geritol liquid as well. But on a empty stomach every morning because I heard it absorbs better. I do feel more energized and less hair shedding! Its old school but great!
Yesss the shedding has slowed down so muchhh for me also!!!
Psalms 37:11,29; Isaiah 33:24; Matt 24:3,14,42,44; Rev 21:3-6.
Thanks for sharing 👍🏾 😊
I’m so glad to hear you are feeling better!
You are just adorable! My hair & I are in menopause😮. Always take care of YOU!
Just a FYI. Be cautious of foods that deplete or inhibit absorption of iron. Turmeric depletes your iron absorption and coffee inhibits it. Eat a orange wedge or a glass of oj after your iron intake for absorption. Enjoyed your video
Thanks for the info and thank you so much for watching!!
Thanks. I consume my fair share of both Coffee and turmeric. I believe I may be iron deficient .
So does calcium.
Get a mulberries or mulberry plant it’s high in iron
@@ulovemegzBeen taking Geritol Tonic since the 80's when i was college and my adhd thanked me very much because my grades were struggling to stay above water.
Had the same issue… I got on an iron supplement and vitamin d. My hair was back within a year.
Omg yaaaas I'm so happy to hear that your hair bounced back! I'm hoping to experience the same!
Can you share which brand supplements you used please?
You look so good! I’m happy you’re feeling better. ☺️
Thank you!! 😊
The same thing happened to me as far as thinning due to Iron deficiency. I've also been slightly anemic for years, but found out at the end of last year that I needed infusions because my levels were dangerously low. I still may have to have another round, but I'm starting to feel better too. I'm glad I caught this video because I've been looking for supplements that not only help with the anemia, but also with thickening and strengthening my hair. Thanks for sharing 😊❤
This is encouraging. My hair has thinned out about 50%! And I take great care of my hair! I reached out to my YT community and was told about iron and vitamin D. I’m so glad that you are seeing such great results. This gives me hope!! Looking great Megz!!

You should also see a dermatologist or tricologist if you have the resources to do so, wishing you the best
It aint always vitamins, sometimes its the things we put in our hair that it doesnt like
This is definitely,old school my grandma swears by this.
I’m anemic as well, my hemoglobin dropped to a 7 and I ended up in the hospital. I tried liver, beets, Floradix but they didn’t help. The only thing that helped me was eating spinach. I add 1 cup of spinach to my smoothie and I feel soo much better 😊
I was 6.5 nothing was working till I ate beans and beetroot everyday I'm now 12
Anemia is bad I had it my edges are getting thick my cracked heels closed after eating beans and beetroot everyday
Didn't know Geritol was still around. I used it as a child, and it was great. There was no liquid, so only a big bulky pill. Glad to see the liquid. Happy for success with your health.
I was also iron deficient, mine was due to multiple fibroids. I survived three surgeries to correct my biggest fibroid, which was causing the most bleeding that caused me to be anemic. At some point, (somewhere around my surgeries, before or after) I tried Geritol, but my body didn't take well to it, so I stopped taking it. Looking at this, I now think it was due to an empty stomach. I'm no longer anemic, though. Thanks for this information!
My hair has noticeably gotten worse over the past 7 years. I started taking Geritol yesterday. Have it on automatic ship! Hoping for great results!
I'm so glad that this is working for you and that you're noticing results. It seems that a lot of people are iron deficient. I'm the opposite and I have to watch my iron intake so that I don't get iron overload. Your hair looks really good!! 💜
Thank you so muchhh! Yesss that's important to avoid iron overload!!
Looking good Megz!
Aw thank you so muchhhh!!!
Happy Monday ☺️
Hey Megs! I love and miss you girlie! ❤❤❤
Good for you!
That’s the key, check with your doctors before taking supplements. Sometimes anemia and shedding is not a lack of iron in your diet. Sometimes it’s Cancer or Chronic Kidney Disease. Plus, if you take supplements that you don’t need, it can store up in your body, and cause other issues.
Nice update 👍🏻 👌🏼
Thank yooou!
Good 2 c u Megz! 🥰
I had blood work in February and found out i was iron n vitamin c deficient. I actually thought about u on your Geritol journey after receiving my blood results, i thought, "it happened 2 me 2."
I was advised to eat things with iron n vitamin c.
Hopefully things will b better next time i get blood work bc ive been very mindful of eating with my blood results in mind.
Aw thank you so much for stopping by!!!! Yesss that bloodwork will tell you everything and things start to make sense. I had to increase my diet with iron and vitamin c also and so far I'm feeling good.
Your hair looks so good 😍
Megz u look great. so glad for all of the good results..I need to get me some geritol cause my hair sheds more than it needs too,
You look gorgeous 😍 May God continue to bless you ❤
Thank you so much!!
I have also suffered from Iron deficiency a few years ago and a little bit more recently. I've been taking the pill version of Geritol and then started taking the liquid version. The shedding has slowed down and now I'm waiting on the thickness to come back.
Awww yay! So happy to hear things are starting to kick in!!!
Awwwwww thanks for your ❤am happy for your hair update😊
Thank you so much!!!!
Girl! Your hair has thicken up sooooo much and you do seem more like yourself, I was low-key worried for a while. Are you vitamin D deficient too? That will do it as well. Your internal health is most important. Im happy for you. Stay well.
Thank yooou! Yes, I was pretty deficient in many areas!
Thanks for sharing. Needed this.
I’ve been taking Geritol for 10 years and it always works!!!! ✨
I’ve been taking Geritol for 7 months pretty consistently and I can honestly say that my hair has finally started to turn the corner. My roots are thicker and I lose less hair. It took me years to lose all of my hair density so I know it’s going to take years to get it back so I’m trusting the process
I just came upon your channel. The first thing that caught my eye was your skin and your make up. I subscribe immediately. Do you have a make Tutorial video?. And what brand and shade are you wearing. You Look gorgeous!!!❤.Thanks.
girl I have been following you since back in the day. So hey girl Hey😊
Aw thank you so muchhh 🤗💕
I love Megz!!
Aw love yaaaa back!!!!
Hey gurl🎉 my fav keep smiling
Heeeey heeeey! Aw thank you so much!!!
Im happy that you're feeling better. I love the layered hair ☺️
Floradex Floradix has less sugar than geritol
Is floradex or floradix is safe for kids to take?
@@veronical6363 Hey and Yes, for Children 6 and Up.
Just make sure to do the recommended dosage or a bit less to avoid any overdose supplement poisoning.
Sorry if that seems a bit scary, just wanna leave you with the Right Information.
🙏🙏🙏💗💗💗🥺🥺🥺
Thank you I appreciate the information 🎉😊
Thank you for this information. I compared the ingredients, and Floradix is a winner by far.
This video is right on time. I was recently diagnosed with anemia and have been looking for something to improve this, in addition to diet. I will ask my dr about this 😊
Yesss its def worked wonders for me!!!!
I'm so glad to hear that it's working for you. I had the same issue but I took Feosol High Potency Iron and it helped tremendously. Also, the Feosol will not cause constipation as I was very concerned and when I look for an iron supplement that was no constipating, Feosol was at the top and it's on point with that. I now take the Feosol for 3 months and stop for 3 months although I eat iron rich foods, I want to ensure that I don't go through what I did in the past.
Would you mind telling me which one as there’s more than one.
I can definitely see the difference in your hair. I was dangerously low on iron and I had the horrible ice cravings. I hate taking iron I can't stomach the liquid, I take it in tablet form a few times a week to avoid constipation. Iron deficiency is definitely no joke.
Thank you so much for sharing!!! I totally feel you and how horrible the symptoms are! YES I want to eventually limit my use to three times a week once things start to level all the way off. You're right about it stopping you UPPPP
@@ulovemegz You just reminded me I've got to eat a couple of prunes! 😂
Not you sold out Walmart. But thank you for exposing this to me. My blood work was fine in January but I’m seeing thinning. I can’t wait to get my order from Amazon.
CVS carries a 3 month supply of Geritol in pill form. I've had great results with both liquid & pill. I alternate because of the taste of the liquid Geritol.
I'm so happy that you are doing better. FYI one way to natural combat the constipation is to drink warmed prune juice. Geritol is considered a one a day multi vitamin that I'd recently said I would start taking once I took up all the individual vitamins I already have, BUT I will NOT be taking the liquid version this comes in pill form with that gel coating that I think will help with any stomach issues as that allows it to release more slowly. TFS!
Thank you so muchhhh! SEE you just put me on because I've never tried prune juice warmed!!! That sound like that will work really well. You're right iron supplements can be so harsh on the stomach
Thanks for the tip. Prune juice made so much sense.
Thanks for the tip! I will try warm prune juice.
@@ulovemegz you are very welcome doll :-) also another thing if you didn't know vitamin C helps your body absorb Iron.
@@ladysunshine9029 you are very welcome 🙂
I really like taking this. You also have to make sure to give this a good shake before taking or you will also taste a metallic taste
If you cannot find Geritol, SSS Tonic is pretty much the same thing which my grandma used for decades..
You look amazing Megz! Been watching since 2009😂😍🥰
Aw thank you so muchhhh
Im so happy for you.
Thank you so much!!
Shalom..it really works but it will give you an appetite like crazy.😮
You look absolutely Beautiful ❤😍
Thank You for sharing 👍🏽🫶🏽
See ur grey streaks coming in
Did you take the pill and liquid or just only the liquid? What multivitamin do you take? ❤️ thanks for the update
Thank you! Only the liquid.
Your hair looks great!!! How often do you relax your hair?
Heeey! Thank you so much. I retouch every 12 weeks.
@@ulovemegz Thank you! I am anywhere between 8-10 weeks.. I work out alot and sometimes its hard to stretch
My Grandma and Great Grand use to take that.
Did you mention burning sensation in your legs? I lost so much hair…
I struggled with iron deficiency along with vitamin D and C deficiency.
I am in the military and it has been hell keeping up with working out etc…
I was placed on iron infusions, I feel slightly better, but I still get burning sensation when I workout…
I will try Geritol for sure.
had a bad case of anemia in 2015 and my fell out in the back of my head and when it grew back the texture was so diff. its thin too. Maybe ill try this thanks fr the rec
I remember your old videos You genetically have great hair
What relaxer do you do your own touchups?
I've been using geritol since I learned of my iron issue annnd well baby in a bottle lol after miscarriages suddenly well lets just say I have a 5 yr old lol now. I never stopped using it and I also use rice water every wash day which for me and my relaxer I would say is once a month as I don't style my hair much anyways the last 5 years I've never received so many compliments on my hair. People are shocked I have a relaxer as I rekax 3-4 times a year. Plus I started the rice water because I wanted to eliminate post partum shedding.
I’ve watched you since 2012. Your hair is still same!
Is that good or bad? I guess the product doesn’t work?
It is the best ever and I also use beet root power (organic from Indian store ). Very good as well. That’s normal to have a metallic tast me cause when u take iron or like when u do iron transfusions.
Myself just found out I’m iron deficient after doing my yearly physical. I started taking Geritol two weeks ago and I’ve seen improvement in my hair, shedding not so much and volume way better. I was really losing my hair because of iron deficiency but I’m glad I found out the problem as I was thinking of cutting it. I don’t get cold easily anymore either n my energy levels is better.
S.S.S. tonic is great for iron deficiency.
I mix mine with orange juice to cut the flavor and it works
Thats a great idea!!!
I started taking the liquid Geritol about 6 weeks ago. I’m waiting to see how it all goes
Welcome Geritol girlyyyy!!!! I hope everything works well.
Maaannnn when I was taking it years ago, it had me going, meaning, I couldn’t sit still long enough, I had to get up and do something, idk, probably took it to late, I think that was it, I took for energy though and it done its job, I stopped a long time ago and wasn’t into my hair.
HEY MEGZ YOUR BACK IM BACK TOO LOL
Weeee is baaaaackkkkk okaaaaay
How often do you take it a day
I don't know if Geritol works for hair, but my sister swears she got pregnant because of high usage of it.
My niece is very healthy, like Olympic swimmer healthy.😊🥰
Try drinking cherry juice rignt after you take it to help with the taste
Ooooh that sounds like a good idea!
This stuff gives me so much energy that it is ridiculous. I have not noticed any stomach problems. Also, I don't taste a thing since the "C" word!
As for hair. Haven't noticed. I will check when I do a blow out.
It makes me feel like superwoman 😂
Hey Megz, did you drink any coffe while taking this supplement?
Hey there no I'm not a coffee drinker.
where can geritol be purchased....walmart, target....or can the pharmacy order for you......
Sss tonic is a good liquid iron supplement
Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!!!
Hi Meg, try some dates and prunes.
Yesssss I've been eating dates and black figs like crazy and I really enjoy them as a replacement for unhealthy sugary snacks lol.
Blood builder by Mega Food works for me. It can be taken on an empty stomach.
I use Geritol a lot but when I run out of it. I resort to chicken liver or any animal liver I can get.
SUPER off topic but what bra are you wearing 😅 Everything is so smooth and seamless!
Heeeey! thank youuuu. I got this bra from the JC Penny about three years ago. I need to go grab me some more because this brand is amazing. I'm going to look up the brand to see if they're on Amazon so we all can get us some new bras lol because I need a new one BAD.
@@ulovemegzyes please 🫶🏾 and thanks for asking @monkeybeans1239878
They need to make a flavored Geritol
Anything you taking with iron in it you have to take on a full stomach. I eat then take my vitamins with orange juice it definitely helps bc if I don’t I will get so nauseous🤢
Iron supplements make you nauseous. When I was pregnant and had the worst morning sickness, my OB told me I had to take prenatal vitamins that didn't have iron, and the iron was definitely the culprit.
Hey 👋🏽 ❤
This didn’t work for me. I was always sleepy plus my hair started falling out bad 😩
Hey Megan, I heard it may reverse grey hair. From ur time using it, did you experience that?
Heeeey! I''ve heard the same but I think I need to be on it a little longer to really see any reversal of my grays.
@@ulovemegz thanks for your response 😁🤗
I take it at night for morning energy
Oooh that's a good idea!!
We NEED MAKEUP TUTORIAL!
Our parents in the Caribbean would give us this as CHILDREN, but it does make some of us eat more than normal,
I definitely suffered from hair loss due to COVID
Me too. I was crying 😭
Some spots never grew back😢
Do you think it’ll work for people with sickle cell? 😭 I’m tired of being tired.
I would consult with your doctor to make sure
I was low in iron from my teens into adulthood. I finally figured out that I am an O blood type. Did some research and I should be eating red meat like steak, lamb etc. I completely turned my health around if I couldn’t get red meat from my food I took beef liver pills.
Same here, eating according to your blood type has changed my life!
@@Joelise1000 a lot of people think it’s BS but I know it worked for me. When I eat things that don’t benefit me even down to vegetables I feel the difference.
Floradix and Gaia Plant Force Liquid Iron are better alternatives to Geritol and tastes better. I haven't had any constipation issues either. My iron and Vitamin D are low and it has wrecked havoc on my hair. I was exhausted and had shortness of breath. It is growing back and thickening up. I also asked my doctor to give me a megadose of D for 12 weeks, and I take it with K2 from the healthfood store. There is a correlation between C-19 and hair loss for some people. My cousin is a trichologist and has treated people for hair loss with this.
I take floradix in the uk it’s been a lifeline
Most supplements take 3 months to actually see results. Because it takes time for it to sink in for a lack of a better word.
I thought I was the only one taking Geritol.
Get rid of the Geritol that has alcohol and get blackstrap molasses that is high in iron, potassium and calcium.
ulovemegz, Yay! I liked this video so much, it made me smile!
Aw thank you so much!!! So happy to be here!!!
I was taking the pills and they didn't work for me.
6 months is a long time before seeing results so how do u know it is what actually worked
I had to make sure I noticed consistency in new growth at the roots to confirm a difference with my hair since I retouch every 12 weeks.
