@Zairenzu Absolutely, but it could be a good marker for people who notice a drop in their work performance to consider checking their symptoms as many are iron deficient and don’t realise it

While #anemia is more commonly associated with women, men can also develop anemia or #irondeficiency . It can be caused by factors such as poor dietary intake of iron-rich foods, chronic diseases, or blood loss from conditions like ulcers or certain medications. #MensHealth

It’s estimated that about 10-20% of people experience side effects from taking iron supplements. Great advice for anyone struggling 🙏🏼 #IronDeficiency #anemia #bloodhealth #HealthAndWellness

Most iron supplements are best absorbed on an empty stomach if you can *stomach* it. If not, try to avoid phytates (cereals, grains), polyphenols (coffee,tea), calcium, antacids, oxalates (fruits/vegetables), soy, eggs, tannins (wine) & caffeine as they can inhibit absorption.

@phyllisloewen Thank you for sharing, it’s under appreciated just how much it can affect our everyday life so that’s why we want to raise awareness because many of the symptoms can be easily ignored.

Seeing multiple teenage girls who have had fatigue and heavy menses for years yet never had iron studies means there are still physicians out there that don’t get it. For the love of God, send a ferritin.

@AllieofTruth There are many ways but as everyone is an individual we recommend researching to be able to make an informed decision based on personal health. We will also share on our profile resources that might be useful, but one important thing if we are iron deficient is to find the cause
