It is found in approximately 70% of hemoglobin, the component that gives red blood cells their red color and which has the excellent role of transporting oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA 5% of the above amount is found in myohemoglobin, a compound that transports and stores oxygen in the muscles. Myohemoglobin has an increased role when the muscles work hard.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIron is essential for the functioning of the immune system as well as for the action of many enzymes that take part in the energy production process.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eInsufficient iron can lead to anemia and deprive the tissues of our body of a sufficient amount of oxygen. Symptoms of such a condition are usually pallor, fatigue, irritability, tachycardia after light physical exercise, sensitivity to cold, and reduced ability to concentrate. It should be noted, however, that vitamin B12 and\/or folic acid deficiency can also lead to anemia (megaloblastic anemia).\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOther symptoms of iron deficiency may be related to reduced immune system function and include a reduced number of white blood cells, reduced antibody production, and reduced resistance to infections.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRecent research has also provided evidence of other symptoms of deficiency, such as a tendency for increased salt consumption, increased fat concentration in the liver and blood, and angular cheilitis (inflammation at the corners of the mouth).\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIron deficiency is quite widespread in all population groups, but especially in women of childbearing age and pregnant women.

Daily dosages of up to 75-85mg are not expected to have side effects. Higher dosages should be taken with the advice of a doctor. It is generally better for the iron we take as a supplement to come from multimineral-multivitamin supplements, rather than from single iron supplements. In people with an increased need for antioxidant protection, it is recommended to take antioxidants at the same time, because iron, when ionized (Fe2, Fe3), acquires oxidizing properties. People with the genetic condition hemochromatosis should avoid iron supplements or iron-rich foods or cooking in iron or cast iron utensils, as these utensils can greatly increase the iron levels in cooked food. Other people who should not take iron are those who suffer from acute hepatitis, hemosiderosis (a condition similar to hemochromatosis), hemolytic anemia, and people who receive frequent blood transfusions. Iron supplements and medications should be carefully kept out of reach of children, especially young children, as high doses of iron can even cause death in children under 6 years of age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"Keimeno\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Two tablets a day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"Keimeno\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NATURES PLUS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41223867793594,"sku":"","price":13.62,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/1543\/2378\/products\/e182-3410-Iron40mg-01-0-2-0-1-2-440x440.jpg?v=1662131025","url":"https:\/\/thinkphirmacy.com\/en\/products\/natures-plus-iron-40mg-90tab","provider":"Think Pharmacy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
