Iron Products

We at Vita Living know that iron is necessary for the survival of human beings. Hemoglobin is the protein that carries oxygen in red blood cells. Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin and assists with the transport of oxygen throughout the body. Additionally, it helps store oxygen within the muscle cells. Iron deficiency causes the body to be unable to produce adenosine troposphere (ATP). This is the primary source of energy for the body. Several other essential processes, including DNA production, depend on proper iron levels in the blood. Indeed, deficient people are diagnosed with anemia and experience depression, fatigue, problems learning, and impaired functioning of the immune system. For this reason, people whose blood work shows iron deficiency should supplement according to doctors' orders.

Iron deficiency is relatively common and affects about 700 million people worldwide. Older people, pregnant women, women during menstruation, teenage girls, and children are most at risk. Of the two kinds of iron naturally available, heme iron found in meat is more easily absorbed by the body. Non-heme iron found in plants is not as easily absorbed, so people who do not eat meat may experience problems with iron deficiency unless they supplement. 

Excessive iron consumption can cause stomach upset and damage to the liver and intestines. It can also lead to a stroke and may cause complications for pregnant women. Furthermore, quite a few medications and supplements may interfere with iron absorption. For this reason, it is essential to consult with a healthcare professional before beginning supplementation. This way, patients can be sure of taking the correct type of iron in the right amounts and eliminating any foods or medications that may prevent absorption.
