Information about Iron deficiency

Health check Iron deficiency gives you insight into your iron value, your iron stores and at the same time your blood status. The test can give you an indication of why you are experiencing symptoms such as fatigue and lack of energy. The health check is also recommended for those of you who need to optimize your iron intake over time.

Iron deficiency is common and mainly affects more women and children than men. Iron is a mineral substance that the body absorbs through the food that is used to form hemoglobin. At low values of iron, it becomes more difficult for the body to produce hemoglobin (HB), which in turn transports oxygen in the body. Other symptoms of iron deficiency are also characterized by dizziness, palpitations, headaches or that you become short of breath when exerting yourself.

Proteins are specific nutrients made up of several combined amino acids. In the body, there are over 10,000 different proteins that form the building blocks of all tissues and other body parts and are used in several important processes such as forming cells, enzymes and hormones.
