Can You Take Bentonite Clay and Iron Together?

Dose or timing may matter

The short answer

Bentonite clay is a potent adsorbent that can bind iron and other minerals in the GI tract, significantly reducing their absorption.

How to arrange timing

Separate bentonite clay from iron supplements by at least 3 hours.

Important context

Whether supplements suit you together also depends on dose, product formulation, health conditions, and medication use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a chronic condition.
