Anxiety, Fatigue, Low Iron ?
If you’ve been feeling anxious, light-headed, or constantly fatigued, your nervous system might not be the only thing under strain — your iron levels could be playing a part too.
Why is iron important?
Iron helps your red blood cells carry oxygen to your brain and body.
Low iron levels can lead to fatigue, dizziness, brain fog — and even make anxiety symptoms feel worse.
Brain and body = Nervous system
Your nervous system is your body’s control center. When it’s overwhelmed, your body shifts into “fight or flight,” increasing heart rate, tension, and stress hormones. If your iron is low, your nervous system has to work even harder, leaving you feeling wired yet exhausted.
Where chiropractic care comes in:
Chiropractic adjustments help ensure your spine and nervous system are functioning at their best.
When the spine is aligned, nerve communication improves, reducing unnecessary stress signals and allowing your body to stay out of constant overdrive.
Combined with balanced nutrition — including enough iron if you’re deficient chiropractic care supports your brain-body connection, helping you feel calmer, more focused, and better equipped to handle stress.
