Tendency to Anemia

Anemia is often treated as if it were due to iron deficiency. There are a number of other nutritional causes for anemia including B12, folic acid, copper and B6 deficiencies. A thorough analysis of a blood chemistry and CNC can uncover the true cause of an anemia.

Often a compromised digestive tract, with a tendency towards hypochlorhydria can cause a persistent anemia, because the minerals and vitamins are not being absorbed properly due to the functional low HCL levels in the stomach. A thorough assessment of the digestive tract is warranted in cases of stubborn anemia.
