Just wondering if anyone takes the old fashioned GERITOL Liquid Tonic with Ferrex 18; a high potency multivitamin and IRON supplement.
A niece who is a vegetarian plus a close friend who is a vegan "swear" by Geritol liquid tonic. I remember it from childhood.....not sure if it's the same so I looked up the components.......obviously not all the vitamins and minerals are included.......but it's got a lot of iron. I remember my mom giving it to us in orange juice (as a liquid Geritol)......click on hyperlink below........
