Recent studies have shown that as many as seven out of ten pre-menopausal women don't get enough iron. Women (particularly during pregnancy), teenage girls, athletes and vegetarians are at most risk of having inadequate iron intake.
Athletes often require iron supplementation. Even though they tend to consume more and often healthier food than the rest of us, they place their bodies under considerable stress, draining them of iron. Iron performs as essential role in the transportation of oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body. Oxygen is required for muscular activity. Myoglobin (the muscle's iron-containing compond) makes oxygen available to meet the requirements of physical activity and sport. Through chemical reaction iron is involved in the production of energy.
