39. Why Iron Supplements Aren't Helping Your Anemia or Fatigue
Description
Hi Listeners!
In this episode, we’re diving into a major myth about anemia that could be keeping you exhausted and frustrated. If you've been told to take iron supplements to fix your low energy—but they're not helping—this conversation will open your eyes. I share my journey from what I was taught in pharmacy school to what I’ve now learned through functional and root cause medicine. You’ll discover how iron overload, not deficiency, is often the real problem—and how this contributes to oxidative stress, poor mitochondrial function, and even chronic conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, and insulin resistance.
We’ll explore how enzymes, copper, and trace minerals like magnesium play a key role in helping your body use iron properly, and how remineralizing can restore your energy from the inside out. You’ll learn practical tips to support your metabolism, avoid harmful iron sources, and why blood donations might be one of the best things you can do for your health. If you’re tired of bandaid solutions and want to feel vibrant again—this episode is for you.
I pray this blesses you!
