You are not anemic, at least not anemic from “iron deficiency!” I am gradually assembling the research that is making it patently obvious that this ubiquitous declaration that many members are terrorized with their iron status is an absolute case of mistaken identity....
Ferritin in the serum is a sign of tissue pathophysiology. Without the ceruloplasmin ferroxidase enzyme, iron doesn’t load properly into ferritin. So it gets damaged and takes on the properties of hemosiderin where iron is stored and doesn’t come out.
‘A Tale of Two Cities.’ You’re not “anemic”. It is bioavailable copper (aka ceruloplasmin) that is key to making iron functional! Bioavailable copper’s ferroxidase role in preventing neurodegeneration.
You were not born with ‘Red Light’ deficiency. What makes thyroid healthy is bioavailable copper!
Your iron isn’t low, it’s non-functional: Make it functional by raising ceruloplasmin.
You are not anemic! You have ‘anemia’ of chronic inflammation, which means you are iron toxic, and it’s being stored in your tissues.
Vitamin D is a sign of low magnesium and high-unbound iron.
IP-6 offers a compelling solution to iron overload.
Iron causes cancer.
How the key (copper) and the fuel (cardiolipin) prevents mitochondrial dysfunction in the lipids getting rusty. The cause of mitochondrial dysfunction.
