Iron is an element found in haemoglobin that carries oxygen in the blood.

It is also a chemical component of many enzymes in the body. Iron is essential for the oxygenation of the red blood corpuscles.

A deficiency of iron causes anaemia and a host of other problems such as fatigue, unhealthy skin, hair and nails, digestive problems, poor physical performance, etc.

If you have any of the above mentioned symptoms please have your iron levels checked.

Anaerobic Metabolism is a process by which oxygen is delivered to the skin tissue via the blood stream and is the only way the skin gets its supply of oxygen and nutrients to keep it healthy.
