I was craving this delicious ice at my job. My mouth would water and I couldn't wait to get to work to eat it. I needed it like someone would need a cup of coffee. I looked into it and I found out about Pica and I started taking a multi vitamin everyday and it absolutely worked.

I just got to have it. I eat 4 to 6 big cups of ice a day I wake up craving it. One time I stopped feeling hungry and started having cravings for ice the cravings made my appetite go away.
My little sister is so young but she started eating a lot of ice after getting her period! I’m going to take her for a blood test tomorrow. Thanks for this video, I was starting to get really worried with her eating habits.
This is exactly how I found out myself. Eating almost 2 kilograms of crushed ice every day. I regularly have iron IV Infusions because I can't absorb it enough through diet and supplements. For the last ten years I've had this craving pointing out that I need an IV iron boost. 2-3 days after, the craving is completely gone.
Please check increase your iron intake and all the cravings will stop. I used to eat baked clay almost everyday and I became very anemic. But as my doctor prescribed iron supplement with hemoglobin blood tonic for me . The craving has stopped since I started taking them .
I can’t go a day without ice. When I’m out I freak out I need it I don’t even drink water anymore I just eat ice and I get really full from it I’m very anemic but I don’t take my iron pills I’m only 15 any advise ?
I love eating ice, but I do take extra precautions with my teeth, I usually eat ice that aren't so hard to chew. But yes, you are right about getting my iron up, which I plan on doing, but I hope I do not lose my hungry for eating ice because I really do enjoy it.
Thank you! That is so kind of you! I actually lost a lot of it over the years because of my iron deficiency. Thank you for watching my video and supporting this community.

2019! So since ice Mukbang and ASMR is a worldwide trend now, does that mean that more people are exposed to iron deficiency? like many people are getting anemia...
I just feel it’s only certain ice that makes my mouth water. I also want to eat medicated powder. Or walking through an industrial area…omg…sooo good. Saw dust and metal objects slicing through iron and steel. I’m thinking it’s the mineral content in these items that makes me crave them so badly as a reaction to having a mineral deficiency. When I’m taking my iron supplements I don’t have the craving either.

Thank you so much. I’m addicted to eating (chomping) ice with water. I am so glad I saw this. I’m going to get my hemoglobin and ferritin levels checked asap.

I've eaten ice since I was twelve... I was anemic as a child I think, but i always thought i outgrew it. :) I'm in Dental Hygiene school yet i still cannot stop eating ice, i will go out of my way to eat ice! i would rather eat ice than food sometimes, i always joke that its my fav food! :) I also eat ice to calm down if i an anxious or annoyed, it helps to calm me down i think. I went to get blood yesterday and my hemogloblin level was too low to donate it was 9.8. ? Something you said that worries me and i also read somewhere afterwards was the
Hazel Stepp, I would really love to try and make contact with you regards this post above particularly interested in knowing more about the chest pains you mentioned experiencing. Thanks.
Crap! I ate like 40 ice cubes yesterday! My mom is kinda concerned 😅 that’s why I’m watching this Do you guys crunch it tho? I just suck on it, but a lot of people crunch it right?
Going for an infusion next Monday. Third one in about a year's time. Tried everything before that, from pills to liquids to supplemented food, nothing cranks it up. And if I know my body, I'll be needing more infusions in the future. It's not too bad, though. Only thing I don't look forward to is the fluid being too cold and my arm freezing up again :(.
I had the same problem. I use to constantly eat ice. My hemoglobin was extremely low that I needed a blood transfusion. Finally I was given I.V. fluids of iron and injections of Procrite injections. As endoscopy revealed that I had a hidden episodes spontaneous internal intestinal bleeding. Special medications and dietary changes almost resolved the bleeding. It was determined that my bleeding was service connected from Agent Orange and depleted uranium ammunition handling during my 34 years in the Navy.

I’m 12 and I’ve been eating ice for almost a year now, in 2 months it will be officially 1 whole year. At first I thought it was weird and I was ashamed of myself for it but now that I took a cooking class, we learned about iron deficiency and all other types of stuff, 2 other kids had said they had something that was mentioned and then I felt enough courage to say I had one too but a few kids were weirded out by it but my 2 friends were supportive and didn’t really care much and they see me as normal and stuff and they didn’t judge me. Nobody judges me when I fill a cup up with ice now in that class when we cook 😂 and I even get cups of just ice when I’m at a restaurant or fast food place, and if I’m with family or friends, nobody judges me. My family has known I loved ice ever since probably the age of 5 since now I’m known as the “ice muncher” or “ice cruncher” or some nickname like that from my mom and grandma who have always noticed when I was little, I’d always ask for a cup of ice. As hard as I try though to get my iron up, I can stop eating iron or something for 5 minutes or less and then it’s like I didn’t even try. Life with the “ice obsession” I have is weird still since I’m only 12 and I constantly have my family(mom and sister) buy me big bags of ice I finish in less than a week. I used to me okay with just one bag a week or just making ice cubes myself but, then the making them soon became to the point I couldn’t even wait 10 minutes after putting an ice tray in the freezer, and my family was too busy to get me a bag of ice. I even once took an hour long walk to sheetz for a bag of ice while it was pouring rain outside.
I like eating dirt like crazy the smell of it is so good lol I have this edible dirt and I eat it couple times a day but ima be seeing a doctor this week
Omg giiiiirrrrl you have to try food grade diatomaceous earth! At least consuming that pacifies the pica but you’re getting an extra dose of minerals such as silica, and selenium which make your hair, nails, and skin pretty. It’s so dusty and powdery, and perfect! If you mix it with water it’s like a mud. It’s perfect. Or just take your iron supplements and eat a steak with lentils and kale…that also works.
God, I need help I seriously do. I chew ice and cement almost everyday and it’s getting out of control and hurting my health. I’ve been getting stomach pains and my teeth are in bad shape. I don’t know how to stop my cravings and it’s horrible... Help!
Oh my gosh. I am so sorry to hear this! Eating ice is very common, but eating cement is an entirely different substance obviously and seems very dangerous to me. Have you had an iron panel done? Ask your doctor to run one, or you can even order one yourself through my website. You can have blood drawn at a local Quest, get the results by email and then take that info to your doctor for a diagnosis.

I’m trying to stop eating cornstarch especially because I’m pregnant but I have been having the biggest urge for it since I been pregnant I’m trying to find other things to replace it nothing works
I told my doctor about this because I'm eating ice left and right and I'm pregnant and he said it was ok but I can't help it I can eat ice all day everyday.
Hi Arianna. Thank you so much for your comment. It is actually very common for pregnant women and new moms to become iron deficient. Did you ask your doctor to do an Iron Panel? You need to know what your ferritin is. Normal is 50-100. Thank you for watching my video and supporting this community. I have had many infusions over the years, but it's been a number of years since I did this video. Personally, I found that time and time again, the IV iron did not "hold" and my ferritin just wouldn't stay up.

i just like ice....my mouth waters just thinking about it.....i tried to get my diet right and stop but my teeth sort of miss the texture and my mouth feels great when its cold.
●seeking for help : >Do anyone always crave for ice because you're anemic ??? I'm kinda sure that I'm anemic , I've ready my mum about this but due to covid it's not possible to see a doctor right now . So can anyone tell me, if my anemia goes away will I stop eating ice too? ??

The Lost Texan For me when I eat ice it gives my brain a little energy boost, said to bring more oxygen to your head. I could sleep for hours upon hours and still feel tired waking up but when I munch on ice I finally feel awake and energized
Question: Iv been told that the kind of anemia I have can not be helped with vitamins or diet. Only with Iron infusions. I had three them times then lost insurance. Levels are low again. (Yes back to checking ice till my tongue has frostbite and teeth break) What can I do ?

When i was little I'd lick garage floors , chalk, rocks and dirt. (Kept that a secret) 😂 I'm actually craving chewable vitamins , beets, and nice bloody roast beef. I've been feeling this way for years . Any way to cure it? :( ... maybe I'll just keep eating some nice beets! 😍.... at least i enjoy the flavor. I crave vitamins abd minerals. But cant get my hands on any, that's probably the issue .

Did you ever get your iron checked, Dear??
@@mrscynthiasayles 16 now and yeah, I have iron deficiency, anemia, and pica 🤣
I love eating ice ❄
What was your diet?
thank you for this video it's very helpful I'm sure you helped a lot of people
I like eating dirt like crazy the smell of it is so good lol I have this edible dirt and I eat it couple times a day but ima be seeing a doctor this week
Omg giiiiirrrrl you have to try food grade diatomaceous earth!

I have a problem of eating ice all the time.And i cannot control it.What should I do😥
I've been eating chalk and clay for years. Took a course of iron supplements and the cravings went away.
There is edible clay on the market do not eat just any clay ! :( dont eat chalk. I know that craving tho.
God, I need help I seriously do. I chew ice and cement almost everyday and it’s getting out of control and hurting my health. I’ve been getting stomach pains and my teeth are in bad shape. I don’t know how to stop my cravings and it’s horrible... Help!

Thank you for watching my video and supporting this community. I have had many infusions over the years, but it's been a number of years since I did this video. Personally, I found that time and time again, the IV iron did not "hold" and my ferritin just wouldn't stay up. You may want to check out my new iron supplement that I formulated and launched in 2018! After years of suffering and trying every iron supplement out there, I decided to just do it myself based on everything that I learned volunteering with the Iron Disorders Institute and after becoming one of the world's first and only Certified Iron Educators. The product is called Ferritin Boost and it's the only solution for my iron deficiency that actually worked long term! www.ironology.life
i just like ice....my mouth waters just thinking about it.....i tried to get my diet right and stop but my teeth sort of miss the texture and my mouth feels great when its cold.
I eat about 10 36oz cups of ice a day.....Every time I check my iron levels I’m never anemic 🤷🏽♀️ so what’s that about
Thank You for this information.

>Do anyone always crave for ice because you're anemic ???
I'm kinda sure that I'm anemic , I've ready my mum about this but due to covid it's not possible to see a doctor right now .
So can anyone tell me, if my anemia goes away will I stop eating ice too? ??
I've eaten ice ever since I was 3, in 16 now. And even before I could chew I was sucking on the ice

I know my iron is low i had to have IV. But why ice? What causes that craving besides low iron?
The Lost Texan For me when I eat ice it gives my brain a little energy boost, said to bring more oxygen to your head. I could sleep for hours upon hours and still feel tired waking up but when I munch on ice I finally feel awake and energized
I've been eating ice and paper.

I didn't know that Michael jackson ate dirt
I was eating kitty food and could not stop. And I did not know why I wanted it. And I have been anemic for a few years
Wow Teresa. That is a new one on me! Cat food. I hope that you have gotten that under control and are feeling much better.
My pica was rubber bands
When i was little I'd lick garage floors , chalk, rocks and dirt. (Kept that a secret) 😂
I'm actually craving chewable vitamins , beets, and nice bloody roast beef. I've been feeling this way for years . Any way to cure it? :( ... maybe I'll just keep eating some nice beets! 😍.... at least i enjoy the flavor. I crave vitamins abd minerals. But cant get my hands on any, that's probably the issue .
