Anemia is a condition in which you lack enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to your body’s tissues. Having anemia can make you feel tired and weak. One of the main causes for anemia (anaemia) is iron deficiency (but can also be a result of inadequate vitamin B12 or folic acid intake).
Vitamin C has been shown to enhance iron absorption. It captures non-heme iron and stores it in a form that’s more easily absorbed by your body. Hence, eating other foods rich in vitamin C or taking vitamin C supplements while supplementing iron, increases your body’s absorption of iron.
Among others, the most often are chronic fatigue and tiredness, low energy, weekend immune system and anemia.
