Feeling Drained? Let’s Talk About Iron Deficiency
If you’ve been feeling constantly tired, foggy, or just not quite like yourself — it might not just be “getting older.” In today’s episode, we’re diving into one of the more common and overlooked causes of fatigue in women: iron deficiency.
We’ll cover:
What iron does in your body (and why it’s so critical)
Symptoms of low iron (it’s more than just tiredness!)
Treatment options that range from food to supplements to IV iron
This isn’t medical advice — just a conversation to help you understand your body better. If you’ve been dragging through your day and wondering why, this episode might give you a helpful nudge in the right direction.
Takeaway:You don’t have to accept exhaustion as your new normal. Fatigue has a cause — and it might be something fixable.
