Sorry you are needing the iron. My hubby took his with a meal. breakfast and dinner worked. Foods with iron are beef and red meats, have a steak, all dark green vegetables like kale, spinach, etc. typical salad doesn't have much to any depending upon lettuce. Best to have iron and meat together for absorption.

So, I should take pills separately? One in morning, one later in the afternoon?? My Iron was 17 saturation 4 !!!
Pick a meal and take it then. Two pills at once. If hard on your stomach then one twice a day. The meal is the key. So, yes two pills at once is fine.
Thanks :)
