What is Iron and Why is it Important?
Everyone needs iron for their red blood cells to function properly. Iron is a large component of haemoglobin, this is what carries the oxygen in the red blood cells. Oxygen is vital for the function of every cell in your body, so it’s important it can be carried efficiently. Iron is naturally found in a range of foods, from meat, to leafy greens, but lots of people lack this vital nutrient.
The Benefits of Iron Supplements
