Anaemia

(Iron Deficiency)

Caused by poor dietary intake and / or absorption, excessive loss or inability to use iron. An estimated 15 per cent of the female population suffers from this form of anaemia. A deficiency of nutritional iron is responsible for oxygen starvation of the blood due to insufficient haemoglobin. The number of red cells is reduced.

Symptoms: Fatigue, weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath, pale inner eyelids, hair loss and flattened nails with vertical ridges.
