Manage episode 429221954 series 3451095
We know iron is important, but did you know that your needs change dramatically throughout different stages of life? From supporting pregnancy to your child's growth and development, iron plays a pivotal role - but how do we make sure we are getting enough, and how do we know if we are deficient?
Today on the podcast Renee, our beautiful dietician steps in for Luka to chat with Kate and explore the vital role of iron throughout various stages of life. From preconception to pregnancy, postpartum, breastfeeding, infancy, and childhood, iron plays a crucial part in our health and development. Renee shares her expertise on how to ensure you and your family are getting the right amounts of this essential nutrient at every life stage - and makes it easy too!
In this podcast we discuss
- The difference between haem and non-haem iron and where to find them
- How we can improve our absorption of iron as well as things that may impair it
- Some common signs of iron deficiency for both kids and adults
- The importance of iron during preconception, pregnancy and postpartum
- How pregnant women can balance getting enough iron while managing pregnancy-related digestive issues like nausea or constipation
- Postpartum conditions that may be affected by low iron and the importance of testing
- The huge iron requirement when starting solids and how this can be achieved
- ... and so much more!

Today’s episode was brought to you by Cell Squared. Cell Squared are a Melbourne based business on a mission to connect people with more traditional ways of eating. If you have been around here for a while, you will know that we are huge fans of liver, and particularly LOVE the Cell Squared liver and spleen capsules as a great way to introduce this iron rich superfood to your whole family. The Organic Spleen & Liver Capsules were recently reformulated to deliver 9.4mg of heme iron per 6 capsule serve. As well as iron (from the spleen), the capsules are unique as they also contain the necessary synergistic nutrients to enhance iron absorption & usability (which come from liver).
