Haemoglobin carries oxygen to the brain, heart, muscles & to tissues throughout the body where it is used for energy release from food. An adequate supply of iron & other nutrients is therefore essential to help 'feed' tissues, an important factor in maintaining energy levels as well as physical & normal cognitive functions & overall health.
