How to avoid iron deficiency in the body
A reduced iron content in the body requires special attention and correction, since over time it can lead to the development of iron deficiency anemia (anemia). This is a multi-stage serious disease, the cause of which is an imbalance in the direction of the predominance of the expenditure of iron over its intake. It is observed in various physiological conditions or diseases (various blood loss, impaired absorption of iron, insufficient intake of iron from food, increased demand in pregnant women and children, etc.). The main causes of iron deficiency are blood loss and the lack of this most important macronutrient in food.
The role of iron in the body
The role of iron in the body is very extensive:
-ono is part of hemoglobin, a protein necessary for the transfer of oxygen by red blood cells (red blood cells) to tissues (gives off oxygen and takes carbon dioxide); Continue reading
Soya and your heart
Conversation of a candidate of medical sciences on the topic:
“Soy and your heart”
Question: Everyone knows that the main cause of death in our time is cardiovascular disease, leading to heart attacks and strokes. Soy is said to surprisingly help avoid this scenario. Is it so?
Answer: Indeed, cardiovascular diseases are one of the main causes of high mortality, a decrease in working capacity up to disability.
Currently, in our country and abroad, an intensive search is underway for methods of early diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of these diseases. The successes of such an activity are obvious: the latest diagnostic equipment, highly effective drugs make it possible to identify a predisposition to the development of cardiovascular diseases, to carry out successful treatment and rehabilitation of patients.

Spirulina
Our health and life expectancy largely depend on the quality of food. It is difficult to overestimate its significance for humans. A balanced rational diet, including proteins, fats, carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins and minerals, can retard old age by 20-30 years and thereby extend your life, cure many chronic diseases. After all, our health is the greatest value.
Against the background of the extraordinary diversity of the plant world of our planet, a special place is occupied by a unicellular microalga from the family of oscillating spirulina (Spirulina Platensis) – the first photosynthetic life form on Earth created by Nature itself 3.5 billion years ago. It contains millions of years of evolutionary wisdom encoded in DNA, it is a real living fossil, the composition of which has remained unchanged for hundreds of thousands of years. Continue reading
