Medical Conditions
Even when you take in the recommended daily level of iron, some medical conditions make it unable for the body to absorb this amount. These include celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and some genetic issues. They affect the ability of the digestive system to absorb iron as usual. Some surgical procedures that are involved with your stomach can also cause the same effects. Keep in mind to seek proper medical attention to prevent more severe problems. [12]
