The doctor called the symptoms indicating a lack of iron
The body is not able to independently produce the iron necessary for human health, which can cause its deficiency. At first, the deficiency of this component may go unnoticed, but after the symptoms worsen. Irina Chekmareva, a cardiologist at the Semeynaya clinic, told about this on Saturday, March 8, in an interview withГазета.Ru ".
"The first and most common sign of iron deficiency is fatigue. People who lack this trace element often notice that their energy is running out, and they feel tired even without significant physical exertion," the doctor noted.
She explained that due to the lack of iron, hemoglobin levels decrease, and this, in turn, affects the transfer of oxygen to tissues and organs. At the same time, such exhaustion may be accompanied by decreased performance, apathy, and impaired concentration.
In addition, there are a number of symptoms that can determine the lack of iron in the body. In particular, it is necessary to pay attention to changes in the condition of hair and nails, pallor of the skin, shortness of breath, and palpitations, Chekmareva added.
"People with iron deficiency may notice that even a simple walk causes them shortness of breath and palpitations. This happens because the heart has to work harder in order to compensate for the lack of oxygen in the body," the expert said.
In order to avoid deterioration of the quality of life and harm to health, the doctor recommended that Russians not ignore the appearance of the above signs and contact specialists.
