Am I Iron Deficient?
The symptoms of iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia can include tiredness, trouble breathing, and chest pain. If left untreated, iron deficiency can lead to iron deficiency anemia which can turn into serious health problems.

We need iron for many of our organs and systems to function, including our immune system, muscles and brain. Our bodies use iron to make hemoglobin, which is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body.

Common symptoms are many and may include fatigue, pale skin, trouble breathing, headache, dizziness, chest pain, restless leg syndrome, dry and rough skin, hair loss, cold hands and feet, poor concentration or memory, irritability, and dry mouth.

Without proper treatment, iron deficiency anemia can eventually lead to long term health complications including heart and lung conditions, worsening chronic conditions, reduction in the effectiveness of medications, organ damage and possibly death.

If you believe you may have an iron deficiency or iron deficient anemia, consult your doctor. A simple, inexpensive test called a Complete Blood Count or CBC can easily be done to determine what’s going on and how to handle it. Dietary changes may need to be made. Iron-rich foods such as meat, poultry, fish, beans, nuts and certain grains are all rich in iron. Your healthcare provider may suggest an iron supplement. Addressing your concerns now will be much easier to deal with.
