I’ve been treated for anemia several times, despite having a good diet and taking a multivitamin but never has my doctor wondered why this is happening and has just treated me with iron tablets. It’s only now that I’ve been doing my own health research that I’m finding this stuff out. We are being failed by our healthcare providers due to a lack of education 😢

Best explanation I’ve heard with awesome illustrations! I’ve learned something new with how gluten affects the lining of the stomach which produces the acid needed for iron absorption, how gluten and that cause abnormal hormones that causes heavy periods.

I'm 57 years old. I have been riding the trauma train caused from doctors ( western doctors) I have been forced to use cause I could not walk from dizziness, 2016 almost died claimed septic shock had blood transfusion and was feeling better .im gluten free organic, drug free and have to beg to get test for my gfr kidney, my anemia and vitamin deficiencies. You are my hero, lifesaver and give me strength to stand strong to these western pharmaceutical drug dealers and claims my insurance will not pay for vitamins that are medically needed

I had cancer at the age of 32. Chemo destroyed some of my red blood cells. I had never been anemic before, i didnt even know what it was. I had trouble getting out of bed one day and i was just “sick” altho I couldn’t tell you what was wrong. Something was definitely wrong, tho. I finally got up and got dressed so we could go to the dr and i almost had a full on panic attack just from looking at the stairs i had to walk down to get to the car. It was one of the strangest things i had ever experienced!

Some time ago they would not allow me to donate blood, because of my Iron level being too low. So I decided to quit being squeemish about liver, and started consuming it at least twice a month. Also upped egg-intake to at least 2 per day (when not fasting). Had not been refused because of too low Iron again, but once because of too low BP (according to them 😅); this probably since, while fasting, was not replenishing electrolytes sufficiently.

I just got my levels up from 1 1/2 years ago. My ferritin is still a little low, but at least I'm on my way up. I started pelvic floor exercises with a physical therapist 3 weeks ago. I've been doing my kegels all wrong. The exercises are helping with a leaky bladder.
