Iron

Iron is a mineral that is essential to hemoglobin production, a component of red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen around your body. Iron is found in every cell of the body and is important for physical growth and development, immune function, healthy hair, skin and nails, cellular functioning, and neurological development.

Iron can be found naturally in many animal and plant foods. Heme iron is a particular form of iron found only in animal foods such as beef, seafood, and poultry. 

Non heme iron is the form of iron found in plants such as beans, legumes, tofu, whole grains, nuts, and seeds.

Heme iron is said to be better absorbed by the body than non heme iron, therefore combining the two forms of iron may improve the absorption of iron consumed in plant foods. Consuming vitamin C rich foods can also improve non-heme iron absorption.

Symptoms of low iron:

• Unusual cravings

  Those at the highest risk of iron deficiency include pregnant women, infants and young children, women of reproductive age experiencing heavy bleeds, frequent blood donors, and those with gastrointestinal disorders.

Iron Supplementation

The effectiveness of iron supplementation will vary depending on various factors:

• The sourcing of the iron
• The state of your gut health
• Intake of foods that may interfere with iron absorption
• Use of medications and supplements
• The presence of nutrients that support iron absorption

Iron supplements can be found in capsule, liquid, tablet and powder form.

The different forms of iron found in supplements will provide varying levels of elemental iron, which indicates total amount of iron in the supplement available for absorption by your body. You can find the amount of elemental iron listed on the supplement label.

As the most common deficiency in the world, iron levels should always be monitored to appropriately assess if supplementation is required in addition to dietary modifications.

It’s important to get the dosing right and regularly check up on your iron levels to avoid excess iron to accumulate in the system, which can be dangerous.
