Iron is a key factor in the formation and proper function of red blood cells (erythrocytes). It is found in hemoglobin and myoglobin – proteins found in red blood cells that carry oxygen to body tissues. Iron deficiency is a common nutritional deficiency, especially among women.
When does the need for iron increase:
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- intense physical exertion;
- severe blood loss;
- kidney failure (especially with kidney dialysis, which depletes iron from the body);
- presence of an ulcer that can cause blood loss;
- presence of a gastrointestinal disorder that prevents the absorption of iron from food (celiac disease, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, etc.);
- excessive intake of antacids (acid reflux medications), which also interfere with iron absorption;
- veganism and vegetarianism.
