Ever wonder why, despite eating your greens and proteins, you still feel sluggish and not quite right? Join me, Damaris Maria Grossman, as I peel back the layers on iron's crucial role in our health, exposing how unseen adversaries like environmental toxins and infections can compromise our iron levels. You're promised a guided tour through the intricacies of heme and non-heme iron – the heroes in our blood – and how their absorption can be affected by our lifestyle choices. From the needs of a growing teenager to the demands of pregnancy, we'll navigate the varying requirements for iron and share a plateful of knowledge on how to source it, whether you're a carnivore, herbivore, or somewhere in between.

But it's not just about what lands on your fork. In this heart-to-heart, we'll unravel the mystery of fatigue and other symptoms that may point to an underlying iron deficiency or even overload. With a compassionate touch, I share my personal experiences with iron bisglycinate, a supplement that's been a game-changer for me, especially when taken with a dash of vitamin C. We'll discuss why individualized care is essential, and I'll pass on the tools and support you need to take charge of your gut health, ensuring that the iron you consume truly benefits your body. So, if you're ready to boost your vitality and embrace a more energized lifestyle, tune in and let's get to the heart of iron's impact on our well-being.
