Servant of jesus .I was bleeding very heavily I came across a video and understood my heart problems hair loss and breathing problems were from blood loss I prayed to Jesus to heal me two months ago . now after 5 years of heavy peariods jesus healed me, one night I opened my Bible and read the story of the women who touched jesus 's robe to be healed and was healed.im just thankful to God today.

Omg. Now I can prove to my parents that I have anemia. They are like yeah we understand science but how deficiency of iron can be related to ice! Thanks so much.
Yes,this is factual.Before I was diagnosed I would eat ice sunrise to sunset.We even got an ice machine.I got sick and ended up being hospitalized.My iron level was at 6.2
I had trouble falling and staying asleep, heart palpitations, hair loss, fatigue, headaches, very tired looking and was so much paler than my sisters. I got my ferritin and hb checked and they were low. Taking iron and finally feeling good again!

MC Mc I took blood test but i didn’t have anemia I had low iron but it’s almost the same and I feel terrible I’m just drinking salary juice it helps a little
I used to have really bad craving for ice and kept popping ice cubes into my mouth several times in a day. It got so bad until I have to eat an ice cube everytime before I go to sleep. Then I went to have my blood tested, 8.9 IDA...once I started iron therapy the craving went away in about two weeks time. It still amazes me how the body works
I have always had anemia, as young as 7 years old. Mine is severe, like hair loss, I even sometimes lose eyelashes and eyebrows. It’s scary when they come out in lumps. Feeling just exhausted for no reason and not being able to get out of bed. Yeah not pretty for most of us.
i think i have anemia and low blood pressure its really annoying i’m only 13 I thought I was healthy. I almost fainted in church for standing for so long it sucked because it was my great grandpas anniversary and I had to sit outside.
The ice makes me feel like I’m alive it wakes up my brain and I’m able to function it honestly tastes like the best thing I’ve ever had not to mention it soothes the tongue swelling 😩
Thank you so much for this video. I have just been diagnosed with anemia of unknown origin. My ferritin level is six, hemoglobin 10.9 hemocrit 32 . I have an appointment with a gastroenterologist in a week. I am craving ice like crazy!
Hey, I hope you're doing better now. Could I ask you if you experienced headaches due to iron deficiency? Because my ferritin level was 14 and I used to get strong headaches, yet I'm not really sure if that was what caused them since it's borderline deficiency.
Clicked your video because of the beetroot drawing on the cover! I only recently discovered I’m iron deficient by chance from a screening blood test which came out quite a surprise because I consider myself on a relatively healthy diet with plenty of vitamin C and I have no symptoms. I do have beeturia but always thought it was a personal condition rather than a symptom. Now I know there IS an association!
I’m medical student and at the same time I’m a patient who is suffering from Iron Deficiency Anemia. I do suggest all who have a PICA syndrome to go to Hematologist, because I had this syndrome which means I reallly wanted to eat chalk and clay, some patients’ organism demands ice or something “uneatable”, mine was chalk. I’m on the treatment and taking some medication. And as a future doctor I looked for extra information about IDA. I’m happy for that I found amazing information from this channel. Thank You Mr. it was helpful 👍🏻
A 4-month-old child was anemic. His hemoglobin was 6.5 gm/dL with a hematocrit of 22.4% following a treatment or oral and parenteral iron. His MCV was 64 fL with a MCHC of 29.0%. WBC and PLT counts were normal. Differential showed a slight increase in monocytes (15%). RBC morphology was described as dimorphic (Hypo/Micro and N/N) with polychromasia and pappenheimer bodies present. Serum iron was increased and TIBC decreased. What are the key pieces of information presented in the case study? Hypo/Micro and N/N, with polychromasia and pappenheimer bodies present. 1. What additional testing should be performed? Genetic test
1. Given the age, do you suspect a primary or secondary condition? Why? r.
1. Assuming it is primary, how would it be classified?
If you have anemia take vitamin pills the doctors give you. Eat green Vegetables 🥬. Don’t drink soda caffeine or pizza and pork or chips or junk food. Don’t drink wine or beer or anything like that. ❤️Hoped this helped ❤️
Thank you, I have been trying my best with this anemia problem of mine and it only got really Bad this year, I haven't had my period for half a year and I have been Passing out at least once every two months when I never been like that.
I still have to visit a clinic for a CBC test but I am almost 100% sure that I have IDA because I've been suffering from prolonged menstrual bleeding since December 2021, it last from 2 weeks to more than a month. I was prescribed a medicine for anemia and Vit C and took them for one month. Just last month, I started feeling shortness of breath just by taking the stairs and it never happened before even during hiking. I am also losing a lot of hair for the last few months. Then a few weeks ago, I just started munching on raw rice like I was eating some chips! I am actually eating raw rice as of writing this comment. I couldn't stop!

"Why do they crave ice, I don't know" 😂😂 You're soo funny and so so awesome ! I hope you know that. And man, first time in 4 years of medical school I fully understood anemia and the concept behind it, all these years I used to mug the indices. Thank you so so much ❤💯💯
Kale contains a lot of iron and I see its positive effects more than taking prescribed iron pills from the doctor. KALE IS AMAZING FOR IRON DEFICIENCY.
Pica is different to Pagophagia. Pica can be a craving to any non-nutritional substance like paper, detergent, chalk, etc. due to deficiencies. Pagophagia is a craving to ice.
I currently have iron deficiency anemia, but it only affects my sleep pattern. I can't fall asleep without being 'forced' awake again, followed by heart palpitations and of course the shaking by released adrenaline. I had a hb of 7,1 and my iron supply was an 8 (doctor said I had to be between 9 and 30). But the sleep pattern problem seems to be only me...I never had the other symptoms. I WISH I had those, because this is a living hell what I have now and nobody can explain it to me.....
thatsillygemini can u email me please godsangelforlife@yahoo.com would like to ask u about ur enemia have the same symptoms as u. They check my heart my doctor says nothing looks bad no thyroid problems either
I'm looking at this to see if there's a possibility I've got anemia, and I've been struggling with this problem for some time now! Falling asleep is really hard because it feels like my heart isn't catching up, or I'm not getting enough oxygen and stuff and it keeps waking me up. I need to look into that
@@SomethingWet Definitely check it out Milo! Its such a stupid symptom but ts only because of my grandad that I pushed at the doctor's office to go for anemia (he's had experience with it so he figured ask for a test) and he was right. I wouldn't have been able to detect the signs myself afterward either.
@@LoverofChrist_41 I had no thyroid problems either, they checked even for diabetes. I told them to check for iron because I got a grandpa who's got experience with anemia so he urged me to ask for a iron deficiency test. I noticed that the problems falling asleep due to beng 'forced' awake again isn't exactly...the most accepted symptom in iron deficiency anemia which frustrates me as THAT was the key symptom along with the heart palpitations and shortness of breath. :/
@@remedyoftheroot for me, I'd say the shortness of breath actually is the cause of being waken up, as my body probably thinks I'm not getting enough oxygen and it wakes me up so I can breathe, and kicks in the adrenaline as it thinks I might be in danger, choking or something. I either wake up or I get sleep paralysis, which can be caused by poor breathing too sometimes. Shortness of breath and heart palpitations are common anemia symptoms from what I've read, and trouble sleeping is definitely intertwined with that, so it's weird it's not considered a common symptom. It seems simply like an elaborate combination of the well known symptoms.
Another side effect to watch out for with IV iron, is that if it extravasates, it will permanently discolour the tissue/skin, so I'm always cautious about the IV access line (its not looking dodgy, etc) before I give IV iron.
Wow, this is an informative video. I am going to do blood work Tuesday finally to see if i am anemic. I was wondering your thoughts. I am 29, but since i was a teenager, I would have very bad cramping during my time of the month. I would sometimes black out due to how bad I felt during that time, and get extremely pale and vomit. Flash forward to my mid 20s and i finally decided to get on birth control strictly for making my periods better. Now that they are better, I don't feel horrible during that week like I used to. However, I do still feel constantly tired. I am very pale. I do have restless leg syndrome. Unlike many other who experience coldness, I seem to be more sensitive to heat and experience hot flashes often yet my hands can remain cold as I experience this sweating. For the last few years, I have felt my face looks "sickly". If I would ask others, they might not notice. But for me personally, I feel something is different. My skin seems aged and sallow at times despite the fact that I am a health person, take vitamins, and my family doesn't age quickly. Other days, my face seems great. It's like I never know what tomorrow will bring in terms of it. But sometimes my face just looks lifeless. Even my eyes which are brown, just seem empty and hollow. I have gained dark circles under my eyes that do not change regardless of diet or sleep. I hate looking in the mirror at times and seeing dry skin or wrinkles before I am even thirty. I looked more into this and i have read that improper nutrient absorption from having something like anemia can cause sallow skin and other effects. If i am anemic, do you think when i begin treatment of iron supplements and all, my youthful glowing skin will return? I used to get compliments on my skin and it's glow all the time. Now it seems washed out and lifeless, despite having even better care for it these days. I want my energy back. I am a little confused as to why i would still be experiencing all this when I now have weakened periods due to the birth control. But I guess the anemia is still present even on a regular day.
I'm 15 and i don't know if it because of quarantining and having nothing to do, but i sleep a lot. Now watching this video seeing craving ice is a sign, I'm definitely going to have to go to the doctor and check
Me not eating enough, nor eating foods that contain iron, coupled with heavy periods and gluten sensitivity is what does me in. When I'm good with my calorie nutrition intake I'm fine. But I when I slip ugh I get anxiety, fast heartrate, dizziness, and when it's bad I get pale randomly, had blue nails, and eventually started blacking out. I got a fitness food tracker and discovered I barely get the correct daily iron intake alone with other nutrients.
I am so sorry to hear that! Glad to know that you’re on the right track! I wish you the best! If you have any medical questions, please see a good doctor! Good luck 🍀
hey, its great to follow your channel, alot of great contents. quick one on MCV and RDW, shouldnt they both move in the same direction as they are both average size sort of?
Thank you so much for your kind words...I wish you all the best...Please subscribe because I have “leukemia and lymphoma” videos coming very soon...Thanks again!
Medicosis Perfectionalis well it’s my own theory, when you go into cold water, then your heart rate will generally slow and constrict blood vessels with it. With iron-deficiency anemia, you usually get fatigue, which means your body can’t produce enough oxygen haemoglobin because of the low iron, obviously. So would eating ice cause all the blood to rush to the brain, therefore stimulating muscles? I don’t know, but the theory has always helped me cope with my anemia better, and the fact that I crave ice.
Thanks for the video, i would just like to comment that i was anemic for years, most of my life (22 years), exhausted all the time, I went to the doctor and he insisted i increase my meat intake specifically beef, which only made it worse. After travelling to India at age 23 and meeting many people from all over the world, I realised this is old incorrect science. Unfortunately people are still taught this on nutrition degrees. I went vegan and have been vegan or plant based (however you want to label) it for 5 years now, I’m now 28, and now after a recent blood test I am no longer anaemic, have unlimited energy, my doctors actually said i have incredible blood (not my words) it was super dark and purple which is what you want, not a tomato sauce colour he said. My body runs of iron from plants perfectly. According to science heme iron is more bioavailable meaning it is better absorbed, however iron is a pro oxidant which means in excess it can cause inflammation in the body, which we do not want. According to science you have to eat many more plants compared to meat to get the ‘correct’ intake, however because non heme iron is less bioavilable it means the body can regulate the intake better, a slower absorption is ideal for the body. From experience the plant source of iron is so much richer, meaning depending on what greens you eat in actual fact you can eat a small amount of plants to get all the iron you need. If you eat cheap spinach from a supermarket shelf that has been sitting there for days compared to foraging nettles, that’s a huge difference. Unfortunately most studies are not carried out with all the variables. My advice would be to increase your greens, and I don’t mean just iceberg lettuce, I mean rocket, kale, nettles, dandelions, chard, sorrel, cleavers, parsley, corrianer, all dark dark leafy greens in nature. Which may be bitter, but we need that for our digestion to function optimally. Heme iron is actually a carcinogen and we do not as humans need to consume it. Just want to share because being anemic for so long was really debilitating and now I am super happy and healthy. Also just to clarify as a ‘vegan’ you can still eat unhealthy, so i like the term plant based because my diet is pretty much plants with some legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits etc. I avoid refined sugar, simple carbohydrates like bread, white rice, processed foods etc. I eat a whole foods plants based diet, hope this helps someone.

I've been craving the feeling of being in a cold snowy forest, as well as the cold, smoky air in winter... When I see powder on TV, flour etc. I also get cravings to eat or smell it... And don't get me started with the smell of cleaning products, I'm addicted 😂... So odd. I just got some blood work done and have quite severe Iron deficiency anemia...
I love the video. Whole series actually. You're cool. What's your source of knowledge? :D I am after heme-onc rotation and yet still learn a lot from your videos!
I stopped myself from eating ice (yeah, eating) for 3 days, I myself don't know HOW!😨😨😵 I should have not watched this video.... where's my ice???......

A 4-month-old child was anemic. His hemoglobin was 6.5 gm/dL with a hematocrit of 22.4% following a treatment or oral and parenteral iron. His MCV was 64 fL with a MCHC of 29.0%. WBC and PLT counts were normal. Differential showed a slight increase in monocytes (15%). RBC morphology was described as dimorphic (Hypo/Micro and N/N) with polychromasia and pappenheimer bodies present. Serum iron was increased and TIBC decreased. What are the key pieces of information presented in the case study? Hypo/Micro and N/N, with polychromasia and pappenheimer bodies present.
1. What additional testing should be performed? Genetic test
1. Given the age, do you suspect a primary or secondary condition? Why? r.
1. Assuming it is primary, how would it be classified?
hemoglobin electrophoresis to rule out thalassemia
Suppose you have an exam tommoro and watching lecture videos but the author is just a chill guy

If you have anemia take vitamin pills the doctors give you.
Eat green Vegetables 🥬.
Don’t drink soda caffeine or pizza and pork or chips or junk food.
Don’t drink wine or beer or anything like that.

No eggs contain something that Inhibits iron abserbtion search it up
I still have to visit a clinic for a CBC test but I am almost 100% sure that I have IDA because I've been suffering from prolonged menstrual bleeding since December 2021, it last from 2 weeks to more than a month. I was prescribed a medicine for anemia and Vit C and took them for one month. Just last month, I started feeling shortness of breath just by taking the stairs and it never happened before even during hiking. I am also losing a lot of hair for the last few months. Then a few weeks ago, I just started munching on raw rice like I was eating some chips! I am actually eating raw rice as of writing this comment. I couldn't stop!
I love ice. I haven’t watched the vid yet but I had to get that off my chest
Thank you so much .....I've passed my board exam🙏

Where can I get that?
More than wonderful and very useful videos..Thank you very much..I am from Libya🤗
My pleasure 😇
"Why do they crave ice, I don't know" 😂😂 You're soo funny and so so awesome ! I hope you know that. And man, first time in 4 years of medical school I fully understood anemia and the concept behind it, all these years I used to mug the indices. Thank you so so much ❤💯💯
My pleasure 😇
Kale contains a lot of iron and I see its positive effects more than taking prescribed iron pills from the doctor. KALE IS AMAZING FOR IRON DEFICIENCY.
What’s the evidence?
Do you have a link to this study?

Pica is different to Pagophagia. Pica can be a craving to any non-nutritional substance like paper, detergent, chalk, etc. due to deficiencies. Pagophagia is a craving to ice.
Thank you so much...its was simply well explained with a lot of details which I didn't find in my textbook, thank u for the effort best wishes
Wow...that’s great to hear...thank you for watching :)
Also y'all have to take iron with vitamin c to make iron absorbed better.

Excellent explanation
Thank you 😊
I currently have iron deficiency anemia, but it only affects my sleep pattern. I can't fall asleep without being 'forced' awake again, followed by heart palpitations and of course the shaking by released adrenaline. I had a hb of 7,1 and my iron supply was an 8 (doctor said I had to be between 9 and 30). But the sleep pattern problem seems to be only me...I never had the other symptoms. I WISH I had those, because this is a living hell what I have now and nobody can explain it to me.....
thatsillygemini can u email me please godsangelforlife@yahoo.com would like to ask u about ur enemia have the same symptoms as u. They check my heart my doctor says nothing looks bad no thyroid problems either
I'm looking at this to see if there's a possibility I've got anemia, and I've been struggling with this problem for some time now! Falling asleep is really hard because it feels like my heart isn't catching up, or I'm not getting enough oxygen and stuff and it keeps waking me up. I need to look into that
@@SomethingWet Definitely check it out Milo! Its such a stupid symptom but ts only because of my grandad that I pushed at the doctor's office to go for anemia (he's had experience with it so he figured ask for a test) and he was right. I wouldn't have been able to detect the signs myself afterward either.
@@LoverofChrist_41 I had no thyroid problems either, they checked even for diabetes. I told them to check for iron because I got a grandpa who's got experience with anemia so he urged me to ask for a iron deficiency test. I noticed that the problems falling asleep due to beng 'forced' awake again isn't exactly...the most accepted symptom in iron deficiency anemia which frustrates me as THAT was the key symptom along with the heart palpitations and shortness of breath. :/
@@remedyoftheroot for me, I'd say the shortness of breath actually is the cause of being waken up, as my body probably thinks I'm not getting enough oxygen and it wakes me up so I can breathe, and kicks in the adrenaline as it thinks I might be in danger, choking or something. I either wake up or I get sleep paralysis, which can be caused by poor breathing too sometimes.
Shortness of breath and heart palpitations are common anemia symptoms from what I've read, and trouble sleeping is definitely intertwined with that, so it's weird it's not considered a common symptom. It seems simply like an elaborate combination of the well known symptoms.
Your voice is awesome. Thanks for the video.
Thanks 🙏
Thank you - this was a good video, you're a good teacher!
Thank you so much 😊
Ist vedio seen great helpful u are just a good techer❤️

Thanks dear 😊😊
Thanx it was very helpful simplified way ... I am in love ❤😭with your hematology and oncology section 🤣

Another side effect to watch out for with IV iron, is that if it extravasates, it will permanently discolour the tissue/skin, so I'm always cautious about the IV access line (its not looking dodgy, etc) before I give IV iron.
I have multiple spots of discoloration. 😔👊
Mystic Sinner wtf I’m getting that this week is it like a full IV with a drip? Or is it just a shot? I’m kinda worried
I just bought some iron vitamins at the store. Should I be worried?
This is very true. I have discolouration on my legs.
Wow! Thank you thank you so much.❤❤
My pleasure!
Thanks alot brother . You are really helping people.
My pleasure 😇
Ive been feeling breathless too bro

Very interesting , great 👍👍
Thank you 🙏
You're funny in your explanations. I like you.
Thank you, sir
I crave ice like it's air. I craved lemon water and beets. My body was telling me all along.
I’ve always had a craving for soil, concrete and clay...
Can you do a video about how to take care of it??
Wow, this is an informative video. I am going to do blood work Tuesday finally to see if i am anemic. I was wondering your thoughts. I am 29, but since i was a teenager, I would have very bad cramping during my time of the month. I would sometimes black out due to how bad I felt during that time, and get extremely pale and vomit. Flash forward to my mid 20s and i finally decided to get on birth control strictly for making my periods better. Now that they are better, I don't feel horrible during that week like I used to. However, I do still feel constantly tired. I am very pale. I do have restless leg syndrome. Unlike many other who experience coldness, I seem to be more sensitive to heat and experience hot flashes often yet my hands can remain cold as I experience this sweating. For the last few years, I have felt my face looks "sickly". If I would ask others, they might not notice. But for me personally, I feel something is different. My skin seems aged and sallow at times despite the fact that I am a health person, take vitamins, and my family doesn't age quickly. Other days, my face seems great. It's like I never know what tomorrow will bring in terms of it. But sometimes my face just looks lifeless. Even my eyes which are brown, just seem empty and hollow.
I have gained dark circles under my eyes that do not change regardless of diet or sleep. I hate looking in the mirror at times and seeing dry skin or wrinkles before I am even thirty. I looked more into this and i have read that improper nutrient absorption from having something like anemia can cause sallow skin and other effects. If i am anemic, do you think when i begin treatment of iron supplements and all, my youthful glowing skin will return? I used to get compliments on my skin and it's glow all the time. Now it seems washed out and lifeless, despite having even better care for it these days. I want my energy back. I am a little confused as to why i would still be experiencing all this when I now have weakened periods due to the birth control. But I guess the anemia is still present even on a regular day.
Pica is not just about ice, but is a desire to eat non-nutritional things, like ice, cardboard, soil, and so on.
You’re correct!
You sounds anemic lol but thanks for this video 😊
like yea haha or mybe so chill idk
I think that’s fair 😄
Rhun Rhun nah,he just calm
hahaha
Exceptional I wish the other videos were structured with the lab results too
Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for making such a nice video ❤️
My pleasure 😇
I'm 15 and i don't know if it because of quarantining and having nothing to do, but i sleep a lot. Now watching this video seeing craving ice is a sign, I'm definitely going to have to go to the doctor and check
Take care!
Please keep me updated!
I was diagnosed with anemia - not enough blood in my body this help 💞😂
Thanks 🙏
Best of luck!
Great work
Thank you 😊
Me not eating enough, nor eating foods that contain iron, coupled with heavy periods and gluten sensitivity is what does me in. When I'm good with my calorie nutrition intake I'm fine. But I when I slip ugh I get anxiety, fast heartrate, dizziness, and when it's bad I get pale randomly, had blue nails, and eventually started blacking out. I got a fitness food tracker and discovered I barely get the correct daily iron intake alone with other nutrients.
I am so sorry to hear that!
Glad to know that you’re on the right track!
I wish you the best!
If you have any medical questions, please see a good doctor!
Good luck 🍀
@@MedicosisPerfectionalis could I send you my labs. I have to schedule another appointment for my doctor to review my results😪
I was diagnosed a few months ago and I really wanted to look deeper into it so thank you for this video
Good video, learned a lot. However way too many adds.
Thanks for your honest feedback!
Appreciate it

hey, its great to follow your channel, alot of great contents. quick one on MCV and RDW, shouldnt they both move in the same direction as they are both average size sort of?
The mathematical equations used are different!
@@MedicosisPerfectionalis thanks a million, just figured.
Very creative way of presenting the material. Brief and complete at the same time. I love it.

Thank you. I did subscribe, a long time ago ;)
Cool...Thanks a million!
Good job 🫡♥️✨
8:12 Why do they crave ice? I don’t know 😂
i lost it at that point 😂😂
Because I think it stimulates the muscles and pushes the blood through our bodies quicker.
What’s the evidence?
Medicosis Perfectionalis well it’s my own theory, when you go into cold water, then your heart rate will generally slow and constrict blood vessels with it. With iron-deficiency anemia, you usually get fatigue, which means your body can’t produce enough oxygen haemoglobin because of the low iron, obviously. So would eating ice cause all the blood to rush to the brain, therefore stimulating muscles? I don’t know, but the theory has always helped me cope with my anemia better, and the fact that I crave ice.
Yo Mama
you are the best!
Thank you 😊
No matter how much I sleep, I’m tired, I also am self diagnosed with pica, I’ve been eating ice for years and started craving napkins recently
Go get checked out please omg
Awesome 👍❤️
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the video, i would just like to comment that i was anemic for years, most of my life (22 years), exhausted all the time, I went to the doctor and he insisted i increase my meat intake specifically beef, which only made it worse. After travelling to India at age 23 and meeting many people from all over the world, I realised this is old incorrect science. Unfortunately people are still taught this on nutrition degrees.
I went vegan and have been vegan or plant based (however you want to label) it for 5 years now, I’m now 28, and now after a recent blood test I am no longer anaemic, have unlimited energy, my doctors actually said i have incredible blood (not my words) it was super dark and purple which is what you want, not a tomato sauce colour he said. My body runs of iron from plants perfectly.
According to science heme iron is more bioavailable meaning it is better absorbed, however iron is a pro oxidant which means in excess it can cause inflammation in the body, which we do not want.
According to science you have to eat many more plants compared to meat to get the ‘correct’ intake, however because non heme iron is less bioavilable it means the body can regulate the intake better, a slower absorption is ideal for the body. From experience the plant source of iron is so much richer, meaning depending on what greens you eat in actual fact you can eat a small amount of plants to get all the iron you need.
If you eat cheap spinach from a supermarket shelf that has been sitting there for days compared to foraging nettles, that’s a huge difference. Unfortunately most studies are not carried out with all the variables.
My advice would be to increase your greens, and I don’t mean just iceberg lettuce, I mean rocket, kale, nettles, dandelions, chard, sorrel, cleavers, parsley, corrianer, all dark dark leafy greens in nature. Which may be bitter, but we need that for our digestion to function optimally.
Heme iron is actually a carcinogen and we do not as humans need to consume it. Just want to share because being anemic for so long was really debilitating and now I am super happy and healthy. Also just to clarify as a ‘vegan’ you can still eat unhealthy, so i like the term plant based because my diet is pretty much plants with some legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits etc. I avoid refined sugar, simple carbohydrates like bread, white rice, processed foods etc. I eat a whole foods plants based diet, hope this helps someone. Love and sharing xx

You explained this well.
Thank you 😊
Im tired but when I try to lay down my head feels weird like am lightheaded or something plz help I'm super worried
Talk to your doctor
Eat and orange and at least 70% dark chocolate. Also organ meats and oysters and clams.
Can you explain more about how the iron deficiency cause smaller rbc (microcytosis)?
The red cells are released into the bloodstream sooner so they have less time to develop so they’re smaller
I've been craving the feeling of being in a cold snowy forest, as well as the cold, smoky air in winter... When I see powder on TV, flour etc. I also get cravings to eat or smell it... And don't get me started with the smell of cleaning products, I'm addicted 😂... So odd. I just got some blood work done and have quite severe Iron deficiency anemia...
I love the video. Whole series actually. You're cool. What's your source of knowledge? :D I am after heme-onc rotation and yet still learn a lot from your videos!
Hey! Thanks a lot for your kind words! I use Harrison’s, Davidson’s, Goljan pathology, Pathoma and Goldman-Cecil.
Thank you for the video. Help s a lot!
I stopped myself from eating ice (yeah, eating) for 3 days, I myself don't know HOW!😨😨😵
I should have not watched this video.... where's my ice???......
