Iron supplement advice
Hi all, I have low ferritin which I have supplemented using a sachet of spatone a day and brought up from 13 to 26 with the range of 23-300. It is the only vitamin/mineral that's crucial for thyroid function that I'm low in and as I'm still having issues I'd like to try to raise it higher. However, I

Confused about B12, iron and haemoglobin
Hi After 3 years of a whole heap of rubbish tests including scans and endoscopy I finally convinced gp to do B12 test (doc: 'it won't be low as you aren't anemic'). It was low. So B12 is 170 (187-883) Iron is 24 (20-200) - so apparently fine And haemoglobin is apparently fine - don't have figures. Had

Iron Deficiency Causing RLS
About 18 months ago I began donating 2 pints of red blood cells every 6 months. About the same time, I started experiencing RLS. Today I learned that I have a major iron deficiency, no doubt because of the blood donations, which is likely the underlying cause of my RLS.[i][/i] Specifically, they tested

Triiodothyroacetic acid in health and disease
We very occasionally see some of the "other" substances in the thyroid hormone family mentioned. One such is TRIAC - and this paper is a review of what we know of it. This is very much for those who are interested in the subject in general. Unlikely anyone will actually get any personal treatment benefit

Research: Cobalamin Deficiency Can Mask Depleted Body Iron Reserves
