Iron deficiency need not be dangerous, but should be clarified. In the following, we will show you what iron does in the body, how a deficiency becomes noticeable and what it can mean.

What physical symptoms indicate an iron deficiency?

Iron is responsible for the transport of oxygen in the body. If too little iron is available to the organism, correspondingly little oxygen is transported to all organs, muscles and other bodily areas.

You therefore feel limp, tired and exhausted. With this type of iron deficiency, the organism is no longer able to perform as well as you were used to.

What are the effects of iron deficiency on the human organism?

A lack of iron in the organism has many reasons. With the help of our Family System, you can find out for yourself what causes you to be deficient in iron. What few people know is that the body tries to keep the iron in the body as low as possible.

Cancer develops and grows only when sufficient iron is available in the body. Therefore, in order for a healthy organism to be able to defend itself against an incipient cancer with its own forces, not too much iron should be stored.

In order not to accidentally burden your organism with too much iron in the blood, we strongly advise you to use our Family System, so that you can better assess and evaluate your personal physical needs.

What is iron needed for in the body?

Iron is needed in the human organism for the blood. Hemoglobin (red blood pigment) binds iron in order to transport oxygen through the body with its help. A deficiency in hemoglobin may or may not be responsible for iron deficiency. Symptoms of iron deficiency include:

• Dizziness
• Headache
• Fatigue
• chapped skin
• discomfort in the area of the tongue
• Anemia

How can a deficiency of iron be detected?

The deficiency of hemoglobin does not necessarily depend only on the iron level in the blood. Sometimes HPU is also responsible for decreased hemoglobin. If hemoglobin is not formed properly, iron deficiency is not necessarily responsible. In order to find out the cause of a decreased hemoglobin value, the value of free iron in the blood is looked at. However, this value does not say for sure whether the amount of iron in the tissue is sufficient or not.

Why is a high blood iron level not always beneficial?

A high blood iron level does not have to be consistently positive. Sometimes it is a sign of chronic or acute inflammation. In this case, there could be a deficiency of iron in the tissues even though there is sufficient iron circulating in the bloodstream.

If a low iron level is detected in the blood, there is often sufficient iron present in the tissues and cells, where it is bound. Therefore, you cannot always rely on the blood values that are determined if you want to know whether sufficient iron is available in your organism.

In addition, the ferritin value in the blood can be determined, which gives an indication of the iron storage. If the ferritin value is low, there may still be sufficient iron in the organism. Suspicion of actual deficiency of iron in the organism is hardened if all blood values are low in relation to iron (iron, ferritin, transferin).

Rely on the PraxisFamily test method

With the help of our PraxisFamily test method, you can find out significantly faster for yourself whether there is enough iron in the body or whether there is an iron deficiency. In most cases, there is no iron deficiency because the body intelligently controls iron in the organism.

If there is too much iron in the body, negative side effects often occur because iron in elevated concentrations is a free radical that feeds parasites, negative bacteria, viruses and cancer cells. A healthy organism therefore always tries to bind only as much iron in the body as is really needed.

How dangerous is too high an iron value?

If the iron level in the blood is elevated over a longer period of time, something is wrong in the body. The assumption is then obvious that there is a disease that must be clarified. It is therefore much better if the iron blood level is in the lower third.

You can then not only be sure that there is no iron deficiency, but also that there are no malignant diseases to worry about. People who eat the wrong foods, suffer from chronic intestinal disorders, or are exposed to environmental toxins are at increased risk of developing cancer.

Detoxification in combination with intestinal cleansing is therefore always recommended if the iron deficiency is supposedly low because the body is trying to protect itself against an incipient cancer. An increased intake of iron would cause exactly the opposite and ensure that the body’s own protective function is disrupted.

Therefore, it is always important that you get to know your own body better and understand your body and its needs better with the help of our PraxisFamily test method.
