"Iron, the quiet hero within, runs vital processes in our body. It helps oxygen move around through haemoglobin, making every cell come alive. This simple mineral not only delivers oxygen but also keeps us energized for daily activities. It supports our immune system, acting like a shield.  When we lack enough iron, we feel tired, weak, and may have anaemia. To stay healthy, we combine iron from plants and animals, building up our iron stores," says Nutritionist Bhakti Arora Kapoor in her recent Instagram post. (Freepik)
