491. Rebecca Edwards: IRON Part 2 - Unpacking iron with real situation examples

Many people experience fatigue in their lives. Many people experience issues with their iron levels. It's one of those Goldilocks nutrients. We don't want it too high or too low, and we definitely want it effectively absorbed to the level we need to make the most of it in our bodies for our energy and a whole bunch of other processes.We had two podcasts on iron last year. One of those was with Rebecca Edwards, naturopath and practitioner lecturer. It was the kind of podcast that leaves you wanting more. I reached out to Rebecca, and we held a masterclass in our Low Tox Club complete with Q&As, live blood panel assessments that members sent in for analysis, and Rebecca guiding us with questions to ask your practitioner. We looked also at key players that affect iron levels are not about the relationship of how much iron you're getting in your diet, but about how hormones, the gut microbiome, the gut lining and various changes in someone’s life can all be factors for issues with iron levels. I made this master class into a podcast so that you could benefit from growing your literacy on iron in your own health, given how many people do.Enjoy the show. Definitely listen to the first show that we did with Rebecca last year. It's not completely a prerequisite, but it will definitely be helpful to listen to both.If you have issues around fatigue or iron right now in your own life, you are in for a very supportive treat.Alexx StuartYour Host. Fancy a few more podcasts we’ve done over the years, related to this one?Show #452 IRON Deep dive: Too high, too low, tried ‘everything’ and still feel awful?Show #433 Fatigue?
