Question 1

What is iron?

Accepted Answer

Iron is a mineral essential to our well-being that brings many benefits to the body. It can be found both in natural sources, such as plant- and animal-based foods, and as tablets, capsules or liquid supplements. One of its main functions is to take part in the formation of haemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues throughout the body.

Question 2

What are the signs of an iron deficiency?

Accepted Answer

An iron deficiency in the body can show through various signs affecting our well-being. Fatigue is one of the most common signs, with persistent tiredness and reduced energy. Muscle weakness and a reduced ability to concentrate may also be observed, along with paleness of the skin and brittle nails and hair.

Question 3

Which vitamin increases iron absorption?

Accepted Answer

Vitamin C is known to increase iron absorption. This vitamin plays a key role in converting non-haem iron into a form more easily absorbed by the body. Eating foods rich in vitamin C, such as citrus fruits (oranges, lemons), berries (strawberries, raspberries), red peppers, kiwis and tomatoes, together with iron-rich foods, can help improve its absorption.

Question 4

What are the side effects of iron?

Accepted Answer

There are generally no side effects on well-being when taking iron food supplements without excess and when the dosage is respected. However, in rare cases, side effects may occur such as gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, vomiting, constipation, black stools). We strongly recommend consulting your doctor before starting a new routine and checking for potential interactions if you take prescription medication.

Question 5

Which foods are richest in iron?

Accepted Answer

Iron is found naturally in the following foods: offal (liver); red meat (beef, lamb); pulses (lentils, beans, chickpeas); seeds (pumpkin, sesame); leafy green vegetables (spinach, kale, chard leaves); seafood (oyster, clam).

Question 6

Can you take iron during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes, iron supplementation is generally suggested during pregnancy to maintain good health. An adequate iron intake can help reduce fatigue in pregnant women. However, it is advisable to consult your doctor before taking iron supplements.

Question 7

What causes an iron deficiency?

Accepted Answer

An iron deficiency can result from a diet too low in iron, frequent or excessive blood loss (in particular during heavy periods), iron malabsorption, increased needs in pregnant or breastfeeding women, or chronic blood loss linked to underlying medical conditions.
