If I take Thorne iron glycinate 25 every other day will it be helpful or hinder this schedule to eat fortified cereal on the days off? I have heard that Hepcidin spikes in the larger iron supplement doses above 60 and the amount of non heme iron in total cereal is not enough to raise hepcidin levels to interfere with absorbtion. I just need an extra boost and my diet is very limited due to other health issues. I can only eat broccoli as my source of vitamin C (cannot tolerate vitamin c supplements or citrus foods )so I do combine broccoli with the supplement and cereal...
