Dear Kathrynn:

There seems to be a lot of controversy in regards taking supplemental iron -
particularly women past child bearing age.  I have also read that some
paediatricians do not want babies to take iron in their formula or in regular
supplements.  Some neurologists frown on iron supplements for PWP but say it
is ok to take dessicated liver tablets for slight anemia.  I don't have a
clear picture on this subject and hope you will comment on this.

Regards,
