Common questions

Is IRON Mountain Iron healthy?

IRON Mountain Iron scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in IRON Mountain Iron?

IRON Mountain Iron lists 13 ingredients, starting with Ferrous Sulfate, Croscarmellose Sodium, Dibasic Calcium Phosphate Dihydrate, Fd&c Red No. 40 and Hypromellose. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does IRON Mountain Iron contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in IRON Mountain Iron’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is IRON Mountain Iron?

IRON Mountain Iron has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does IRON Mountain Iron compare to other vitamins?

At 15/100 IRON Mountain Iron scores worse than most vitamins we have scored. A higher-scoring option in vitamins is NOW Foods Extra Strength Astaxanthin 10 mg at 97/100.
