Food for Ferritin and The Art of Absorption with Trichologist

By far, the most common deficiency related to hair loss and hair thinning in women is low ferritin levels. Mainstream you will hear more about low iron, but it is really the bodies storage of iron, ferritin, that can be the bigger problem to consider. Iron comes from what we eat, this provides some energy and oxygen which is important to body function, so important that the body has a chemistry equation to convert iron into the ferritin which is the storage form of iron. Our bodies do this because we cannot function without iron, it is that essential.

For women, the menstrual cycle is a contributing factor for loss or iron and using up the ferritin storage tank. If the cycle is heavy, changeable or in the presence of hormonal problems, it can drain the ferritin, even if you are consuming the right types of iron. Also, the wrong type of iron supplement can also rob the body of ferritin stores.

It’s tricky to find out what came first, low iron, low ferritin, or malabsorption. When we identify low iron and or ferritin, we will suggest the right type of supplementation along with food for ferritin and some mineral support. Our Food for ferritin covers the different types of iron (protein), both animal (heme) and plant (non heme) forms. For animal proteins, they are complete on their own and will provide the iron and then ferritin if combined with the right foods following food combining guidelines. The animal protein is not required in high amounts to get what we need, even once a day 4 days a week with @ 90g is more than enough, but it is more about the absorption that is key. Contrary to popular belief, red meat is not the highest in protein, unless eaten raw, and it the most difficult protein for the body to break down, taking up much digestive energy, sometimes draining the body even more. A variety of animal and combined plant proteins is the ideal way of eating along with good, clean, wholesome food types.

Then plant proteins are incomplete on their own, they need to be combined with another plant protein to be complete and form the required amino acid profile to work.
