molar mass of carbonyl iron is 195.90g/mol and atomic mass of fe+2 is 55.8, so in 100mg of carbonyl iron the qty of elemental iron is 100x (55.8/195.90) = 28.48mg so total elemental iron is 28.48 mg. is it correct or not ?
Answer: I don't know exactly, but I'll give you a clue. It's probably at least 100 mg and up to 600 mg of elemental potassium, because you can buy 100 mg elemental potassium tablets and up to 166 mg potassium tablets (probably elemental potassium) right off the shelf in stores in Canada without a prescription or doctor's approval. Answer: According to my calculations, using a formula provided to me from a pharmacist or assistant, there's 373 mg. of elemental potassium in 600 mg. of potassium chloride.

An orange has about . 1 mg of orange. The vitamin C in an orange will help the body absorb iron supplements if eaten around the same time.
Spinach's main elemental components are carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. As far as trace components a study of the chemical composition, the minerals K, Ca, Mg, Na, Fe, Zn, Cu and P were present.
it's iron
The elemental iron is 5.4 mg
33 mg/14% elemental iron.
65 mg of elemental iron.
Thirty three percent of a ferrous fumarate is retained in the form of elemental iron, so for a 90 mg dose, we'd take 33% of 90mg which equals 29.7mg of elemental iron.
100 mg ferrous ascorbate is = 14 mg iron (elemental iron is 14 %)
it is the same answer because ferrous is metal and it is equivalent gmoubarak: that is incorrect, you have to see how much elemental iron both are equivalent to and dose them by elemental iron content. ferrous sulfate is 20% elemental iron ferrous gluconate is 12% elemental iron therefore 100 mg of ferrous sulfate is 20mg elemental iron, and 100 mg of ferrous gluconate is 12 mg elemental iron. You can then use this to calculate the conversion between the too. When dosing the two you have to use elemental iron need. Hope this helps. G.Moubarak PharmD

Ferrous gluconate provides 12% elemental iron. For example if you take 100 mg ferrous gluconate you will get 12% elemental iron. Similarly Ferrous sulphate provides 20% elemental iron and Ferrous Fumarate provides 33% elemental iron that is why ferrous fumarate is best supplement for iron deficiency specially in pregnancy and lactation.

Women over 50 requires less dietary iron. After 50 years of age, women usually stop mentruating. So they need 3 mg elemental iron/day as against 5 mg of elemental iron/day for menstruating women.

No, rust (iron oxide) or iron is not a poison at low doses. Iron poisoning is an iron overload caused by a large excess of iron intake and usually refers to an acute overload rather than a gradual one.The therapeutic dose for iron deficiency anemia is 3-6 mg/kg/day. Toxic effects begin to occur at doses above 10-20 mg/kg of elemental iron. Ingestions of more than 50 mg/kg of elemental iron are associated with severe toxicity.
