Low Vitamin D and Hemoglobin Are Hijacking Women's Health - AI Podcast
Story at-a-glance
- A large health screening revealed 45% of women have low hemoglobin and 75% are deficient in vitamin D; these low levels affect energy, hormones and overall health
- Nutrient deficiencies manifest differently across age groups, with younger women experiencing immune and hormonal issues while older women face increased risks of bone loss and cardiovascular problems
- Smart strategies to increase hemoglobin include consuming iron-rich foods with vitamin C, avoiding coffee/tea near meals and addressing absorption issues like gluten sensitivity
- While low iron is a concern in menstruating women, iron overload is dangerous and common, especially in men and post-menopausal women; high iron levels increase cancer risk and damage mitochondria
- Regular testing of ferritin, the protein that stores iron in your body (ideal range 35 to 45 ng/mL), and vitamin D levels (aim for 60 to 80 ng/mL) is necessary for targeted supplementation and lifestyle adjustments
