"Iron supplements" refers to tablets or capsules that contain a concentrated form of iron. These supplements are taken by people who have lower levels of iron in their body, usually to treat or prevent anemia. Anemia is a condition where there is a shortage of healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin, which can lead to fatigue, weakness, and other health issues.
Iron supplements help increase iron levels, which is important for the production of red blood cells.
