Low Iron Doesn’t Have to Be Your Normal

Approximately 20% to 35% of women of childbearing age (under 50) are iron deficient. This is largely due to iron loss through menstruation, which can be exacerbated in women with heavy menstrual bleeding. Iron deficiency, also known as anemia, is a condition in which blood lacks adequate healthy red blood cells. Red blood cells carry oxygen to the body's tissues. As the name implies, iron deficient anemia is due to insufficient iron. Without enough iron, your body can't produce enough of hemoglobin in red blood cells that enables them to carry oxygen. As a result, iron deficient anemia may leave you tired and short of breath.

There are ways to help bring your iron levels back up. At The De Pieri Clinic, we have hand-selected the best options for supplementation that absorb the best and don’t leave you feeling nauseated after your take them. Ferapro is ideal for individuals who need intensive iron replenishment, taken daily to help maintain iron levels. For people who would rather get their iron from a smoothie, we carry PurePaleo beef isolate protein powder. One scoop is equivalent to a serving of beef for iron. Lastly, for people whose body doesn’t easily absorb iron supplements, we also offer Iron IV therapy, as this way the iron gets directly into your bloodstream and straight to the problem.
