3. Dizziness
Dizziness is a common symptom of iron deficiency. Sometimes, this symptom is accompanied by frequent and recurrent headaches. That is because if you have iron deficiency, the red blood cells will not be able to distribute enough oxygen throughout the body. If the oxygen can not reach the brain, it can put pressure on your head and this is why dizziness takes place.
It is important that iron deficiency is diagnosed and treated as soon as possible. Aside from eating foods rich in iron, the patient can also take iron supplements. Following a healthy lifestyle can also help to avoid anemia caused by a lack of iron.
