Geritol Tonic
Geritol is a United States trademarked name for various dietary supplements,
past and present. Geritol is a brand name for several vitamin complexes plus
iron or multi-mineral products in both liquid form and tablets, containing from
9.5 to 18 mg of iron per daily dose. The product has been promoted from almost
the
beginning of the mass media era as a cure for "iron-poor tired blood." In the
early 20th century, some medical doctors and other health professionals felt
that much of the tiredness often associated with old age was due to iron
deficiency anemia.
