About iron:
You're probably getting enough iron on Atkins if you're eating plenty of dark green vegetables and meat.

There's no Atkins rule forbidding you from taking an iron supplement, but the pills are often poorly absorbed by the body, and oan cause constipation. A lot of people in the early stages of Atkins struggle with constipation anyway, and iron pills make it worse. Better to get your iron from your diet. It's absorbed by the body better and doesn't cause constipation.
