Could This Be Your Iron Story, Too?
What if the solution to your exhaustion, brain fog, low mood, and unexplained symptoms, was hiding in plain sight? In a "normal" lab test? One you hear about every year?
Clinical Trials Point to a “New Normal” in Iron Levels
Nida’s Story…
Nida began to dread mornings. She could barely drag herself out of bed when her baby woke up before dawn. Her energy level had declined slowly over the winter, but she thought it was due to sleep deprivation and maybe a touch of seasonal depression. When she started to have insomnia and severe headaches, she suspected it was something more serious.
She asked her doctor about it, and he ordered some tests. She never saw the lab results, but took his word for it, that the results were “normal.” She felt confused and embarrassed by her inability to function in her day-to-day life.
Her life-changing moment would come a few weeks later. While she was loading groceries and strollers in her car, her heart started racing and she could not catch her breath. She was afraid that she would pass out. What about her baby? Fortunately, that episode passed after a few minutes.
She kept thinking, “Didn’t my doctor just say everything was just fine? Could this just be stress?”
The next day, Nida decided to make an appointment with a heart specialist. At her visit, she was very surprised when, in addition to the heart monitor she gave Nida to wear for 10 days, she also ordered a ferritin test.
Two weeks later, the results of her tests came back. Nida’s heart, as it turned out, was fine. But her ferritin level was what is called “low normal.” That means it’s only slightly above the threshold of iron deficiency of 30. Nida’s was 32.
“Was that why my regular doctor said that I was in the normal range?” she asked. “Yes,” her heart specialist said. “But that notion is slowly changing. We believe the real normal level, for most people, should be around 75.”
Nida had just seen an article about a new iron called Ferravitin Iron. Unlike standard irons, Ferravitin Iron absorbs fully and leaves no unabsorbed iron in the gut to cause side effects. (Editor’s note: standard iron absorbs at 10%, leaving 90% in the gut unabsorbed.)
After taking Ferravitin Rapid Restoration for 30 days, Nida’s ferritin level jumped to 68. Now she keeps it there with Ferravitin Daily Maintenance. She has not had an episode like the one she experienced in the grocery store parking lot since.
No doubt there are millions of women (and men) with their own personal stories of struggling to find the root cause of their symptoms. Nearly one in three Americans has undiagnosed iron deficiency. And according to the World Health Organization, iron deficiency is the most prevalent nutritional deficiency worldwide. It affects 33% of non-pregnant women, 40% of pregnant women, and 42% of children globally. So get checked, and if you need it, you can depend on Ferravitin Iron.
