Why do we need it?<br />
Iron is an important component of hemoglobin,<br />
the substance in red blood cells that carries<br />
oxygen from your lungs to transport it<br />
throughout your body. Hemoglobin represents<br />
about two-thirds of the body’s iron. If you don't<br />
have enough iron, your body can't make<br />
enough healthy oxygen-carrying red blood<br />
cells. A lack of red blood cells is called iron<br />
deficiency anemia.<br />
Without healthy red blood cells, your body<br />
can't get enough oxygen=exhausiton. That<br />
exhaustion can affect everything from your<br />
brain function to your immune system's ability<br />
