What is iron deficiency..

If the iron levels in your body are low you can become iron deficient. This is the most common nutrient deficiency in the world.

Iron Deficiency can occur before you become anaemic. As your iron stores run low, over time, this means that the body makes fewer healthy red blood cells, and leads to  Iron Deficiency Anaemia (IDA).

There are many symptoms of iron deficiency, including feeling fatigued or exhausted. Iron Deficiency can affect both mental health (brain fog, inability to think clearly, anxiety or depression) and physical health (palpitations, air hunger, chest pain, headaches, itching, bruising and in severe cases; restless legs or pica (eating ice)).

If iron deficiency is not treated there can be long-term consequences for your health. Fatigue and other symptoms of iron deficiency can also adversely affect your quality of life and reduce your ability to function, concentrate and be productive at work.
