10 Side Effects of Low Iron
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Iron has been an important metal for mankind. It allowed us to build weapons and later it helped us to create increasingly large structures. It is still used today in making steel, which is essential for construction and other uses around the world.
In addition to helping us with large-scale construction, it also helps our bodies to function. Iron helps to make hemoglobin, and hemoglobin is needed to transport oxygen in the blood. Without it, we would be unable to feed our bodies with the oxygen it needs, and we would then be in big trouble.
If you have insufficient levels of iron in your blood, you are likely to experience a range of symptoms as a result.
