Normally I have never enjoyed chewing or eating ice but as of the past week or two all I can think about is chewing and eating ice. About a month ago I did give blood. But other then that I have no other idea of why I might be iron deficient because normally I have high levels of iron. And doesn‘t chewing ice suddenly mean I have become iron deficient? Should I see a doctor if this is the case? I have no other symptoms that anything is wrong.
Iron anemia can lead to dizziness and fatigue. There are good amounts of iron in oysters and mussels. Nuts are a good source of iron and also iron fortified cereals such as Weetbix. Wheat germ and wheat bran are both rich in iron. Perhaps you need an iron supplement.
