Answer:

Iron is an essential part of your body, especially for blood production.

Explanation:

Iron is primary involved with the transportation of oxygen throughout the body. Irons help to form heme synthesis, which creates haemogoblin, which is a protein that can be found in red blood cells. Haemogoblin then transports oxygen from your lungs to throughout you entire body, maintain our functions. Without Iron, we wouldn't have this.

Another function of Iron is its role in our metabolism. It is a key component of some proteins and enzymes, which you body needs to survive.

However, there must be a balance in the amount of Iron in you body. Too much can be dangerous and too little of it can produce health problems.

Hope this helped! :)

Which vitamin c tablet is best for abortion?
vivado [14]
I found this recipe in a book called "A Woman's Book of Choices: Abortion, Menstrual Extraction, RU-486" by Rebecca Chalker and Carol Downer.
The books says to take 6-10 grams of ascorbic acid a day for 5-10 days. It says specifically ascorbic acid. Don't use vitamin C with bioflaviniods in it, because they work to prevent miscarriage. Read the label and check the ingredients, write down what to look for if you think you won't remember when you get to the store. Tons of vitamin c products are available, look for the cheap generic brands, they are usually the ones that have pure ascorbic acid. Don't use anything that has Rose-hips in it, they contain bio-flaveniods which help to prevent miscarriage. this is not recommended though.
