Feeling Flat? How Iron Deficiency Lowers your Energy Levels

Jacqui Lewis - 16 Dec 2020

Fatigue - Feeling Flat

Fatigue is a regular problem and can be linked to a number of issues
Lack of energy can be related to a lack of number of Macronutrients (Carbs, Protein and Fats) or Micronutrients (vitamins and minerals)

The main player is IRON DEFICIENCY - this affects up to 48% of Bariatric patients in the first 12 months after Sleeve and Bypass
Iron also relies on B Group - in particular B3 B6 and B12 so your BN multi is the main stay for keeping these in good supply.

Overall the B group and Magnesium are critical for effective ENERGY PRODUCTION
A carbohydrate restricted diet will leave you feeling flat as the brain needs a certain amount of glucose to function well, and a good supply of glycogen stored from carbs is essential for feeling energetic
Protein deficiency can also leave you feeling EMPTY and TIRED and your recovery from exercise will be slow without adequate supply.

The following products will take care of your energy production and help beat fatigue after your Weight Loss Surgery
