About this episode
Most people with anemia or iron overload don’t think about their immune system but iron levels are very closely linked to inflammation in your body. Learn the details on the regulation of iron stores in the body and the importance of macrophages in iron cycling. Find out how iron impacts insulin sensitivity and metabolic health and what happens when iron is deposited in your brain. liver and other organs.
Note: There is a sound glitch at 32:36 and I was saying "spinach is rich in oxalic acid". This interferes with iron absorption.
