Iron: Perhaps the most important of iron's functions in the body is the production of hemoglobin and myoglobin (the form of hemoglobin found in muscle tissue) and the oxygenation of red blood cells.

Strenuous exercise and heavy perspiration deplete iron from the body.

Deficiencies are at the root of many cardiovascular problems, as well as chronic fatigue, chronic pain syndromes, depression, and irritable bowel syndrome.
