An effective remedy for reduced hemoglobin, I did not have side effects, like from other preparations containing iron. I drank it one capsule every day, after two weeks I passed the hemoglobin test again, it turned out that it rose by 2 units. I managed to keep the hemoglobin index at the same level, most importantly, it did not Fol after childbirth either.
