Iron: First find out why you are losing iron faster than your diet replaces it. Then find out why you are not absorbing enough iron (gastritis, short bowel, deficient diet etc). Then correct the things that can be corrected. The body has a means to balance this nutrient and you need to discover why it is out of balance.
