Hi Meghan, I found you via a podcast - can’t actually remember which one!

I’ve got extremely low ferritin but I eat great quality red meat and a very healthy diet.

I had been having lots of turmeric lately and just read about it inhibiting iron absorption, which I’d never heard of before.

I wondered if you have any material on this?

Good to hear from you, Sarina. It's because you are not absorbing what you're consuming. If your colon is congested, your liver is sluggish and overburdened, and your drainage pathways are clogged, it's usually not that you're deficient in a particular vitamin, mineral, or nutrient, but that you're not absorbing what you're consuming.

I highly recommend setting up a 1:1 consultation! https://calendly.com/meghanswidler/health-history-consultation

A bamboo one! I will write a non-toxic kitchen article soon.
