An essential mineral for your body’s growth and development, iron helps transport oxygen from your lungs to your entire body. Good food sources of iron include lean meats, fish, poultry, molasses, tofu, legumes, lentils, spinach, nuts, and fortified cereals.
Who should take iron supplements?
If you have low iron levels or are iron deficient (as diagnosed by your healthcare professional), iron supplements should be considered in conjunction with your healthcare practitioner. Teenage girls and women with heavy menstrual cycles are at higher risk for low iron levels, as are pregnant women. Additionally, if you don’t eat a balanced diet rich in iron-rich foods or are taking medications that reduce iron, you may need iron supplements.
What are the benefits of iron supplements?
Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin (the main protein found in red blood cells) which allows red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout your body. Without iron, your body can’t make enough red blood cells, causing your body’s tissues to receive less oxygen than they need. Iron is also an important nutrient for women in their reproductive years.
