FAQ’s
What does iron do in the body?
Iron is a vital mineral, essential for forming haemoglobin in red blood cells, which carry oxygen from the lungs to the cells to make energy. Without enough iron, oxygen levels are reduced, potentially resulting in tiredness and fatigue, affecting cognitive function (memory, thinking skills) or development in children, and immune function.
Who is more at risk of low iron or iron deficiency?
Iron levels may be reduced in menstruating women especially if periods are heavy, or if dietary levels are low. Pregnancy requirements for iron are greatly increased, resulting in a higher risk of deficiency. Most dietary iron is found in red meat, and other animal products such as dairy, so vegetarians, and especially vegans, may struggle to maintain iron levels. Although iron is high in some vegetables like spinach, it tends to be highly complexed in fibre and can be very poorly absorbed.
How do I know if I’m low in iron?
Low iron than optimal levels of iron can be fairly common in women of menstruating age, vegetarians, vegans, teenage girls and in pregnancy.Symptoms include pale skin, pale inner eyelids, shortness of breath, palpitations, pounding in the ears, headache, and, of course, general weakness, tiredness and fatigue. In severe cases red blood cell numbers may reduce so much that iron deficiency anaemia may result, and can be diagnosed via a blood test from a GP
What’s the best iron supplement to help?
Iron supplements are not all the same. The form of iron makes a big difference to how well tolerated it is and how well it is absorbed and used by the body. In particular, prescribed iron from the GP as ferrous fumarate or sulphate is very strong and can irritate the digestive system, causing pain, nausea, diarrhoea or constipation. People who react to this may be better off taking a gentler, better absorbed form of iron over a longer period of time. Iron bisglycinate is a gentle, bio-effective form of iron (well absorbed and used by the body) and can help to increase iron levels effectively without the risk of digestive upset.
