Pregnancy.
Pregnant or breastfeeding women need to eat more iron-rich foods or take iron supplements.
They need more than two times the amount of iron as men do to serve their own increased volume of blood as well as for their growing child.
The good news is that iron deficiency anemia is a very treatable condition!
With changes in your diet and iron supplementation (according to your physicians recommendations), blood counts can return to normal within a couple of months.
The best way to treat this form of anemia is through prevention.
After a year and a half of retirement, the focus on what is important and what is not, is becoming much clearer as time passes by.
