Iron Deficiency Guide

What is an iron deficiency?

Iron deficiency occurs when the body does not have enough iron to produce adequate amounts of haemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. It is one of the most common nutritional deficiencies worldwide and can lead to iron deficiency anaemia if left untreated. Symptoms include fatigue or weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath or dizziness.
