Advice from a Stranger
One day, a completely unknown man walked up to me at a Starbucks. What he told me was chilling—he warned me that my vegetarian diet was making me anemic. He then handed me an iron pill and went on with his day. I don’t know if he was a doctor or what, but it turned out he was totally right.
I take iron supplements each and every day now. For those concerned for my safety over the fact that I consumed a pill handed to me by a stranger, I can confirm it was Slow-FE from an in-tact blister pack.
He opened a box with them in it and I saw him tear off a square (the pack is perforated in a way to allow this). You then have to pull back a layer of thick paper and foil, and then pop it out through another layer of foil.
If this wasn’t an iron pill, then that guy just spent tons of cash making it look legit. That being said, I still don’t quite recommend anyone doing the same… Story Credit: Reddit/joanhallowayharris
