According to the recent Medibank Better Health index, more than one million Australians in 2016 are iron-deficient or anaemic. This is a jump from about 861, 000 people in 2008
Young women aged 18-30 are typically among the worst affected due to menstruation, pregnancy and menopause contributing to an increased requirement for the mineral.
The percentage of iron deficiency has risen from 13. 4 % of young women in 2008 to 15. 3 % in 2016.
The main reason that people avoid taking iron supplements is the frequency of the side effects of Constipation and nausea. Ferrous + C uses a different salt form to others on the market and has a significantly reduced chance of these side effects.
