Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below a couple of weeks I started to do terrible on cardio and endurance training, I wonder if I'm intaking enough iron. The only time a good enough high intake of iron is from my cereal. I consume more of chicken than beef or steak. I do drink coffee so I know I'm reducing the absorption of iron. It also feels like I'm breathing really low like I'm asleep everyday. So should I consume more iron?

Hey,
Try this Take 1 Ferrous fumarate, Iron amino acid chelate, iron citrate-28mg -this is a chelated Iron supp sold at most health food stores.(this has worked for me because it doesn't cause constipation-Iron supplements in general cause constipation)along with a good B-complex and something like 1000mg of a good Vit C. C with iron aids absorption, B complex esp b12 needed for RBC, and mix this with a hand full of dessicated liver tabs. You can take the handful of dessicated liver tabs 3-4 times a day-The Iron pill just once a day.
Follow this regime for 7-10 days and evaluate and change in cardio.
PS- Iron overdose is a possibility for males, so if in doubt get a lab work up. But in the absence of a complete blood work up try the iron/B-comlex/1000mg C/dessicated liver once per day, with 3-4 follow ups per day dessicated liver alone- try this 7-10 days and see if you have any improvement with cardio on up hill runs or with intervals...if you see improvement you were probably slight anemia.
