Description

I chat with Associate Professor Amanda Patterson about the complexities of iron deficiency and anemia, particularly in women. Amanda explains the differences between iron deficiency and anemia, the causes of iron deficiency, and the types of iron found in food. The conversation also covers symptoms, diagnosis, and the consequences of untreated iron deficiency, especially in children. We discuss the importance of dietary strategies and supplements for treatment and maintaining iron levels, while also sharing personal insights and a family recipe.
