We got tired of iron
that nobody could actually take.
Every iron supplement on the shelf asked you to make the same trade: swallow something unpleasant, feel worse for a few hours, and hope it was worth it.
hemma exists because that trade never made sense to us.
Made by a mom, for moms
Stacy Smith started hemma during her second pregnancy, when a routine blood test turned into a daily fight with a bottle of iron pills she couldn't keep down.
She tried the tablets. She tried the gummies. She tried the liquid that smelled like a handful of loose change. Every one of them came with a catch, and every one of them ended up at the back of a cupboard.
So she made the one she'd wanted the whole time: liquid, so there's nothing to swallow. Ferrous bisglycinate, so it's gentle. A flavour you'd actually choose, so you'll reach for it tomorrow. And a label short enough to read out loud.
Stacy is still pregnant, and still takes it every morning. hemma is women-owned and built for the women who actually have to take it — not for the shelf it sits on.
What we won't tell you
Plenty of supplement brands will say anything. Here's what you'll never hear from us.
That it tastes like candy.It's iron, and iron has a character to it. We flavour it, in mixed berry, strawberry or orange, so it goes down easily — not so we can pretend it's a dessert.
That it treats or cures anything.hemma is a supplement, not a medicine. It supports your iron intake. Anything to do with a diagnosis is a conversation for you and your doctor, and we won't get in the middle of it.
That results are instant.Iron rebuilds gradually. Anyone promising you an overnight fix is selling you something else.
A review we made up.Every review on this site comes from a real customer. When we have none, we'd rather show you none.
Feel better. Live fuller.
One tablespoon a day. No pill to choke down, and no aftertaste to talk yourself into.
