Iron deficiency anaemia is extremely common affecting around 20% of the world’s population including 8% of preschool children, 12% of pregnant women and 15% of non-pregnant women of reproductive age. Iron deficiency without anaemia is 3 times more common yet remains under-recognised and undertreated. The symptoms across both groups are many but include fatigue, weakness and irritability. Taking iron supplements is first line treatment, but may not always bring success. Evidence demonstrates that holistic gut health and iron absorption are inseparable. Naturopath Di Strang and her client Natalie Chapman bring the point home in this episode “The return of Iron Woman.”
