They all work together.👁 In most cases, low iron is a case of low copper (copper is essential for absorbing iron from the gut) and *high estrogen* (hello PMS) is linked to low copper (read the Painless Period Guide on how to reduce excess estrogen).ALSO, your kidneys produce a hormone called erythropoietin, which stimulates the bone marrow to make red blood cells needed to carry O2 throughout the body. If the kidneys are not nourished through food (and is heavily impacted by stress & anxiety), then of course you will feel weaker and tired, and you will indeed have low iron!Remember: start at the root.
