Show Notes
I've encountered countless women struggling with iron deficiency and depletion.
They’re tired all the time, breathless when they shouldn’t be, unable to focus and have nagging headaches that hang around for days. Being in a general state of fatigue all the time leaves them feeling unable to function properly.
It can be really debilitating.
So they head to their doctor, get the relevant blood tests and are prescribed iron supplements or if the levels are really low, an iron infusion could be recommended.
They start taking their supplements and wait for their levels to increase.
But despite being diligent with their iron supplements, they continue to face low iron levels and their energy levels aren’t improving.
This cycle can be incredibly frustrating, mainly because iron is such an essential nutrient for our bodies. It carries oxygen around our body, and without enough of it, we're left feeling tired, unfocused, and weak.
In this episode, I break down why this is happening and what you can do about it.
