Anemia is caused by a g6pd mutation and found that people using to much iron leads a build up of iron in the blood. Cooper is needed to uptake the iron.

Medications that block stomach acid such as PPI's can also cause iron deficiency anemia. My anemia is caused from taking omeprazole.

As a heterozygous carrier of H63D, I love these videos, as they give me ideas of how to reduce my iron intake or utilize iron faster.

Another factor decreasing intake is tannins eaten along with iron sources. Ao drinking coffee and tea with their iron rich meals... So for me having the opposite concers to being anemic.. I intentionally do this.

I always thought my low iron was due to blood loss during periods, but but postmenopausally I am still struggling, so it must be an absorption issue. In my culture we eat red meat every day.
