sorry, I forgot the 1 in @1NQ
@NX9
taking the Vitamin Supplement, it might be that. I have seen a medical doctor and she has raised the Iron Dose and in a months time, I need to do another Blood Test.
@NX9
Thank you for your response. I do take Vitamin Supplements, not together but I will stop
@artistawake
Are you taking any herbal suppliments? That may be a possible reason (if its preventing the absorbtion of iron).
Also smoking may have an effect as well.
@mauritiangoddess1
First seek advice from a medical doctor. Get a second opinion if you have too.
You should understand that certain herbs can prohibit the absorption of certain vitamins, drugs, etc and possibly iron tablets as well. Smoking can also block the absorbtion certain vitamins etc.
I would stop taking the herbal suppliments until your iron leveles go back. Find out which herbs are doing this. Cont. to take your iron pills get a doctor’s advice.
Please help me, My ferritin was 40 and after supplementing with Iron Tablets, my Ferritin level went to 33. Ferritin levels must be 40 to keep hair and 70 for hair to grow. I was previously vegetarian and changed my diet including Meats and Proteins to increase my Ferritin levels, but instead I am 1 stone heavier.
What is wrong, I have no GI problems or malabsoprtion disorder. I am now on 1200 mg of Iron and I feel so depressed.
@tickyul over the past three years doctors have also been unable to determine why ive had anemia and it has definitely been a major cause of frustration for me. I assumed that it was inadequate intake of iron rich foods as i was a vegetarian for a few years leading up to the anemia. although even with a change of diet the anemia has not resolved. I am currently being tested for celiac disease though, as malabsorbtion could be a cause of anemia.
@4chango Uh, so let me get this straight. When I take Ferrous Fumarate and my Anemia symptoms improve within days………………that is not really a health improvement……….it is detox???? Well, with that thinking I guess I might as well stop taking it and go back to feeling like crap………BRAVO!
@artistawake Have they determined why you are anemic, this is probably one of the most important steps in treatment. I have had anemia for over 8 years and still have not got a real clear answer.
@JustmeKasie Plant based iron is inferior to animal based iron, not as well absorbed. Try any of the various yummy animal organs…..liver, spleen, lungs, heart, kidneys…etc………….they are really yummo!
@4chango ive heard of blackstrap molasses
and thanks for all the info! i agree completely with iron tabs being toxic. my body just didnt seem right when i took them so i stopped taking them and altered to sunbathing haha. ill check out your channel 
thnx again!
@JustmeKasie Part 1: The first indicator that artificial iron supplements are dangerous is the fact that it is not absorbed well by the body. People who take iron develop constipation, green hard stool and most physicians inform their patients to take the supplement with an acid forming substance, in order for it to be broken down to a slight absorbable state- such an ascorbic acid.
@JustmeKasie Part 2: The other issue with iron supplements is that this heavy metal competes with other trace minerals especially zinc and calcium. It for this reason that fortified foods and iron supplements have been link to infections, Parkinson, ALS, Huntington, premature aging, cataract, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer, leukemia and lymphatic cancers. Plus keep in mind that when a toxic metal is placed in your body, the system will produce red blood cells at a faster rate.
@JustmeKasie Part 3: This is why after taking iron supplements ones hemoglobin and hematocrit will appear higher. The problem is that these readings are false in the sense that this increase is not indicative of improvement, but rather the body’s way of creating excessive cells to flush out the toxic waste.
@JustmeKasie Part 4: Just by taking small doses of the following toxic metals your body will be able to produce the same “false positive” as taking ferrous sulfate: lead, mercury, cadmium and nickel. As for what to do about anemia, keep in mind that there are about 400 types of anima. Some are the results of natural iron deficiency, estrogen imbalance, thyroid issues, vitamin deficiencies or toxic metals poisoning.
@JustmeKasie Part 5: Also if a woman has her labs taken within 9 days after her menstrual cycle, the results will yield a false-positive; in other words if you are schedule for lab work wait at least 9 days after your period. Finally what can one take that is safe, again that depends on the cause; but to generalize one can take unsulphured blackstrap molasses and organic salt free black olives. Maybe I will post on my channel a naturopathic approach to anemia in the later future.
@4chango how?
@prettyrulestheworld Have you tried herbs?
@JustmeKasie : Iron tabs are toxic.
@Smile85000 : Have you tried a naturopathic approach?
@TheArvinian01 it was the normal unit.. i was just extremely low.
@Spagoochy try to check what unit was used
@MrKontrollanten lol so does FAT
I found out that I had it and my iron was 9.6 and I was really tired getting up in the morning now 3 years later I feel a lot better
12-16 for females. i got bloods done and it was 4.7
