Episode Description from the Publisher

Free Summit - https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/the-ferritin-terrain-summit-2026Low ferritin is one of the most overlooked issues women face In this video, I share my personal journey with iron deficiency, the symptoms I brushed off (like always being cold), and the nutritional strategies that actually work to raise ferritin levels naturally.We cover what ferritin is, why it matters, how your body transports and absorbs iron, the role of mineral-rich carbohydrates, how stress blocks iron absorption, and the biology behind iron deficiency. Everything here is scientifically documented — this isn't just my opinion.Substack - https://sarahkleinerwellness.substack.com/p/i-tripled-my-ferritin-in-90-daysSulforophane podacast - https://youtu.be/7oquScnu-WESupplements I currently use - https://ckarchive.com/b/68ueh8h547pdvhkq88gqmtpz2dmm8i9hv5q0lTIMESTAMPS0:00 - Intro: Why Women Need to Know About Ferritin2:13 - "My Ferritin Was low— Getting My Lab Results3:30 - The #1 Symptom I Ignored (Always Being Cold)4:30 - My Reaction to the Diagnosis6:30 - What Is Ferritin & Why It Matters8:00 - The Nutritional Approach to Low Ferritin8:32 - This Is Scientifically Documented9:30 - How Your Body Transports & Absorbs Iron10:30 - Nutritional Strategies That Actually Work11:00 - Mineral-Rich Carbohydrates for Iron12:45 - Podcast & What's Coming Next13:30 - If You Want to Increase Iron, Look at Stress14:00 - What's Blocking Your Iron Absorption14:15 - Why Carbs Are Key for Ferritin Levels15:27 - The Biology of Iron Deficiency17:24 - Going Deeper: Root Causes17:53 - What's Usually Playing a Role18:22 - See You in the Next VideoThis video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional!________________________________________Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey!https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resourcesCheck out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!
