Listen Later

Iron deficiency anemia is the most common nutrient deficiency worldwide affecting more than one billion people resulting in symptoms like:

  • Weakness
  • Impaired cognitive function
  • Decreased immune function
  • Developmental issue

And while many of us turn to iron supplements to raise iron levels - Morley Robbins, mineral expert, author of the Copper Cure, and today's podcast guest, believes there is much more to the story.

In fact, Morley believes iron deficiency anemia is a copper, rather than iron, issue.

Tune in to this week's podcast for a fascinating exploration of iron-related issues, the best foods and supplements for improving iron status, and these fun facts…

  • The valuable roles of copper for health
  • Symptoms of copper-deficiency
  • Why copper is misunderstood
  • The true causes of anemia
  • The food that cures anemia
  • How to improve copper status
  • Why ferritin is a poor marker for iron status in pregnancy
  • Why too much iron is harmful
  • The 3 best sources of whole-food copper
  • How to properly test copper and iron status
  • Common lifestyle factors that harm copper
  • When vitamin A toxicity may not be a concern
  • How to talk to your doctor about your copper/iron status

Morley has a grasp on the literature and practical implications of this topic, like no one else I have ever interviewed!!

I know you will love this conversation and I sincerely hope it's helpful!!
