Iron Deficiency
Iron is essential for energy, oxygen transport, and overall health. Women are at a higher risk of iron deficiency due to menstruation, pregnancy, and perimenopause 1 . Low iron levels can lead to fatigue, dizziness, pale skin, and weakened immunity.
How to Boost Iron Levels:
- Eat iron-rich foods – Red meat, spinach, lentils, and tofu are great sources of iron.
- Pair iron with vitamin C – This enhances absorption, so try adding citrus fruits or capsicum to your meals.
- Consider an iron supplement – A good iron supplement can help restore levels and improve energy.
