Wednesday, March 27, 2024

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., March 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The body uses iron for many functions. Most of this iron is obtained through an individual's diet. However, when there is a chronic shortage of iron or the body struggles to synthesize it, it can be a problem. This can lead to iron deficiencies and anemia (the under-production of red blood cells, often due to a lack of iron). Three million Americans suffer from anemia, and WHO estimates that the condition globally impacts half a billion women and over a quarter of a billion children under the age of five.

Key Points:
