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! :)
