Guest: Thomas DeLoughery, MD Host: Peter Buch, MD, FACG, AGAF, FACP Iron deficiency anemia is common in gastroenterology patients and is often underrecognized or suboptimally managed. That's why targeted treatment is essential to improve patient outcomes. In this expert-led discussion, Dr. Peter Buch and Dr. Thomas DeLoughery outline what gastroenterologists need to know about oral vs IV iron, absorption dynamics, and tailoring therapy for various patient populations. Dr. DeLoughery is a Professor of Medicine in the Division of Hematology and Oncology at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland.

Most people think iron is only a concern if they're deficient, but too much iron can be just as dangerous. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Christy Sutton, a leading figure in the study of iron imbalances, to explore the often-overlooked health epidemic of unrecognized iron overload. Anchored around her book, The Iron Curse, we discuss why outdated laboratory ranges often fail to detect these imbalances and why recognizing them is so crucial for long-term health. From there, we dive into the intricacies of iron metabolism and the need for updated functional health ranges tailored to healthy populations. Dr. Sutton explains how imbalances can signal underlying health problems and highlights the value of functional lab testing in catching issues conventional methods often miss. We also explore the role of genetic testing—especially for hereditary hemochromatosis—and how genetics and environmental factors work together to influence iron levels. Key Takeaways: Iron Imbalance Epidemic: Iron imbalances, particularly overload, are often underdiagnosed due to outdated lab ranges and misconceptions, representing a silent health epidemic. Functional vs. Conventional Ranges: Functional health ranges, as opposed to traditional lab ranges based on sick populations, are crucial for accurate diagnosis of iron-related health conditions. Importance of Genetic Testing: Genetic factors (hemochromatosis genes) play a significant role in iron overload, necessitating comprehensive testing beyond typical lab work. Dietary and Lifestyle Influences: Both high and low iron levels are influenced by diet, lifestyle, and, importantly, how iron interacts with other nutrients and lifestyle factors like exercise. Gender and Iron Requirements: Iron needs differ significantly by sex and life stages, with menstrual and post-menopausal women, as well as men, needing tailored iron management strategies. More About Dr. Christy Sutton, D.C.: Dr. Christy Sutton is interested in asking why health problems happen and finding the safest and least problematic solutions. Her work takes a deep and meaningful dive into genomics, labs testing and creating a personalized health plan. Her focus on finding and avoiding health landmines early stems from her personal experience with Crohn's and celiac disease plus her husband's experience with high iron, hemochromatosis, and a pituitary tumor that likely was associated with having undiagnosed hemochromatosis.

It's a significant topic in sports nutrition, particularly for endurance athletes, so today's podcast episode is all about understanding iron deficiency in gymnasts. In the sports nutrition world we're super keen on screening for iron deficiency and/or iron deficiency anemia, because we know this can have major detrimental impacts on performance in all athletes. Most coaches, parents and athletes have an understanding of why iron is important in regards to endurance, stamina, power etc. But.... what the majority are missing is that its not as simple as "is she anemic or not"I've spent the last 5 years, working exclusively with gymnasts, and as a team we've learned just how complex the iron piece is. And what became increasing clear is that sometimes when supplementing iron isn't effective, those gymnast most likely had more of an iron recycling/mobilization problem. But what does that mean?Listen in to hear more about: Different types of iron issues; the spectrum of anemia The two distinct types of gymnast "iron deficiency" we see and why it takes different approaches when it comes to "fixing" it The top six things we've learned about iron, labs, endurance and what it means for your gymnast Links & Resources The Balanced Gymnast® Program for level 5-10 female gymnasts Instagram PostEpisode 8: Gymnast Nutrition + EnduranceConnect with Christina on Instagram @the.gymnast.nutritionist or christinaandersonrdn.com

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Christy Sutton, author of The Iron Curse, to debunk myths and misconceptions about iron. Dr. Sutton dives into the complex relationship between iron and health, discussing the potential dangers of both low and high iron levels and how they can impact overall well-being. We explore the root causes behind iron imbalances, including genetic factors, diet, and lifestyle, and discuss practical solutions to address these issues. She also provides valuable insights on what to request during lab testing, offering listeners a guide to better advocate for their health.Dr. Christy Sutton is a chiropractor who is interested in asking why health problems happen and finding the safest, best solutions to common problems. Getting to the root of the problem is the foundation of her writing, teaching, and clinical practice. Her focus is on finding the cause of and avoiding health landmines early.Her most recent book, The Iron Curse, is the product of discovering that her husband had hereditary hemochromatosis, and a pituitary tumor that may have been causes by having undiagnosed high iron damaging the body. After this experience she began to look closer at the hemochromatosis genes with iron labs in patients. She discovered that there is a silent epidemic of undiagnosed hemochromatosis, high iron, and that hemochromatosis patients are misunderstood, mistreated, misdiagnosed, and dismissed.SHOW NOTES:0:51 Welcome to the show!4:42 Dr. Christy Sutton's Bio5:43 Welcome her to the podcast!6:33 What are we getting wrong when it comes to Iron?7:35 Causes for Low Iron9:29 Hemochromatosis & High Iron Predisposition10:46 Lifestyle contributors to high iron13:59 Is Red Meat really bad?16:18 Addressing genetics22:51 Genes that decrease iron23:39 Ways to reduce iron27:15 Iron Curse Protocol27:27 *Magnesium Breakthrough*29:05 Supplements that lower or raise Iron levels34:26 Ferroptosis & Oxidative Stress37:50 Measuring liver function in lab work42:37 Understanding Ferritin45:33 Anemia & H.Pylori48:02 TIBC & UIBC51:32 Additional Markers: Copper & Ceruloplasmin55:26 Contributors to Anemia / Low Iron1:00:22 Wheat/Gluten in Europe vs America1:02:09 Heavy Metals impact on iron status1:09:48 Her final piece of advice1:10:53 Where to find her1:11:18 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Dr. Christy Sutton WebsiteThe Iron Curse CourseMTHFR Webinar WorkshopGeneticDetoxification.comInstagramFacebookBook: The Iron Curse***FREE Magnesium Breakthrough***Our Sponsors:* Check out Puori and use my code BIOHACKERBABES for a great deal: puori.com/biohackerbabes* Check out Timeline and use my code BABES20 for a great deal: www.timeline.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

On June 27, 2023, researchers published a population based analysis of the prevalence of Iron Deficiency and Iron-Deficiency Anemia in Females in the US who were aged 12-21 Years. This study spanned from 2003 to 2020. What they found was staggering: Almost 40% of American teenage girls and young women had iron deficiency. This was published in JAMA. It's the first research to look at iron deficiency in young women and adolescent girls. Iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anemia are both common, underappreciated conditions with significant morbidity and mortality despite widespread availability of effective treatment. Iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient deficiency worldwide and is the most frequent cause of anaemia. Historically, the focus of screening has been preschool-aged and pregnant females. The CDC-P recommends anemia screening for nonpregnant female adolescents and women every 5 to 10 years, whereas the USPSTF does not address screening for these populations. Oh, and that CDC recommendation is from 1998! That's right, no update since 1998. Also, guidelines from the ACOG focus only on anemia during pregnancy. But now, and here's a clinical pearls: This year, for the first time in its history, the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics issued a recommendation that all women and girls who menstruate should regularly be screened for iron deficiency, not just for anemia and not just during pregnancy. This was recently picked up as a story in the New York Times, being published on October 17, 2023. And here's another clinical pearl… It is completely possible for someone with normal hemoglobin levels to still have iron deficiency. So in this episode, we're going to address the new FIGO guidelines and review why a “screening CBC“ just does not have the sensitivity to detect iron deficiency in reproductive age women. We will also review the appropriate screening test for this condition, as well as review basic iron physiology.
Have you ever found yourself battling unrelenting fatigue, experiencing bouts of dizziness, and wondering why your energy seems to have abandoned you?

This is one of the treatments that are offered at the Poppy Clinic, you can receive it as a stand-alone treatment or as part of your holistic health care. IV stands for Intravenous. It is a 40-minute session during which you are administered a customized blend of vitamins intravenously, right into your bloodstream. The advantage of getting your vitamins this way is that the digestive tract is bypassed in order for you to absorb 100% of what you are getting, you are receiving the vitamins directly, and are able to get much higher doses of the vitamins than you would ever be able to get otherwise. Did you know that 1 of 3 people have a digestive compromise? This means that even if you are eating a great diet or taking all of your vitamins, you might not actually be digesting and absorbing everything. IV Vitamin Therapy is the treatment that helps you absorb 100% of vitamins into your system. Benefits of IV Vitamin Therapy: - Boost your immune system - Heal from chronic disease - Fight off infections - Boost your mood - Improve sleep quality - Calm your nervous system - Health optimization - Prevention of disease - Anti-aging and collagen production boost Reach out to the Poppy Clinic! You don't need a referral. We look forward to meeting you very soon!
Iron deficiency anemia is particularly common among women and people who have diets low in iron. On today's podcast episode we chat with Asia Sharif-Clark who struggled with iron deficiency anemia for 33 years before finding a doctor who suggested investigating the cause of why she wasn't absorbing and storing iron, as opposed to ongoing supplements and infusions. Following her experience, Asia then became a Certified International Health Coach and Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. Today she helps other women with Iron Deficiency Anemia who want to boost their energy naturally and maintain it, so they can stop dragging and start living, with more energy, passion, and joy. Today we jump right in and look at the signs and how women know if they are anemic. We talk about the five thieves of anemia that rob women of living a full life, including some symptoms that we may not have linked with anemia. Asia shares the three must ask questions women need to ask their doctors for a faster recovery and also where to go to get more support.

In this episode, we will cover a complete overview of definition, diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of iron deficiency anemia (IDA). Key Concepts Iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most common type of nutritional anemia. The most common risk factors are insufficient dietary intake, malabsorption, and increased requirement states like pregnancy or blood loss. Serum ferritin serves as the most confirmatory lab test for diagnosis of IDA. A low serum ferritin level usually indicates the presence of IDA. Other iron studies and CBC can be helpful in diagnosing IDA as well. Generally oral iron therapy is a well-accessible, inexpensive, safe, and effective approach for IDA treatment. Almost all PO options are equally effective and safe. Gastrointestinal adverse effects are common and can sometimes limit further dosing. Intravenous iron therapy is generally reserved for patients who are refractory or intolerant to PO treatment, have malabsorption of PO iron therapy, or have other health conditions such as chronic kidney disease, cancer, upcoming surgery, etc. Available IV options are equally effective and selection of an agent depends on insurance coverage, formulary inclusion, patient preference for test dose, frequency of dosing, etc.

So many women with Iron Deficiency Anemia have accepted that they have to suffer forever, that this is just how things are going to be now. But I'm here to tell you that that isn't true. Is recovery possible? Let's dive in with a story about my client and friend, Marva. In this episode, I share Marva's “before and after” story. Marva is a mom who didn't have enough energy to spend time with her daughter. She was a social worker whose job was greatly impacted by her lack of energy. And she had big dreams that IDA was hindering her from working towards. Fast forward to today, Marva is living her dreams with more energy than she ever thought possible. Listen on to find out what she wanted and how, with the support of a coach and community, experienced the changes she needed on her healing journey. Show Notes: [1:40] - This is a story about one of Asia's favorite clients and her journey. [2:19] - Marva is a mom and was a social worker. IDA impacted her ability to give her all and everyday was a struggle. [3:42] - IDA was impacting her ability to spend quality time with her family. She wasn't able to do the things she wanted to do. She knew she was ready for a change. [4:24] - Marva knew three things: she wanted a coach, she wanted nutrition to be a major part of her recovery, and she wanted lifestyle support. [6:38] - Watching women go from no energy to tons of energy is one of Asia's greatest joys. [7:20] - In addition to physical symptoms, IDA comes with a lot of emotions, particularly guilt and shame. [8:57] - Guilt and shame can become very overwhelming and debilitating. [9:42] - Energy is just the beginning. [10:34] - After recovery, Marva has more energy than she ever thought possible.

Welcome to PICU Doc On Call, A Podcast Dedicated to Current and Aspiring Intensivists. I'm Pradip Kamat and I'm Rahul Damania. We are coming to you from Children's Healthcare of Atlanta - Emory University School of Medicine. Welcome to our Episode a 2-year-old with severe pallor and O2 desaturation. Here's the case presented by Rahul: A two-year-old presents to the PICU with severe pallor + O2 requirement. The patient went for a routine check with her primary care who noted the patient appeared severely pale. He sent the patient to the ED. An initial Hgb check revealed a Hgb of 1.5gm/dL. Per mother, she is otherwise healthy but a very picky eater. She also reports the patient drinks milk as a soothing adjunct at night, consuming between 12 - 36oz a day. No family h/o of anemia or any other blood disorders. No h/o recent illness. Mother had a normal spontaneous full-term delivery. The patient is up to date on her immunizations. Per mother, developmental milestones are normal. The mother also denies any history of decreased activity in the child. Given the low Hgb, the patient was admitted to the PICU. Let's transition into some history and physical exam components of this case? What are key history features in this child? Severe pallor in a 2-year-old H/o being a picky eater H/o excessive milk consumption Pertinent negatives include: No obvious blood loss, No petechia, bruising, or jaundice What did the physical exam show? The patient was hypertensive, tachycardic to the 140s, and 10th% weight for growth percentiles On physical exam, the patient was in no acute distress. Her lips, gums, and conjunctiva were pale. She had a systolic ejection murmur. As a pertinent negative, she had no hepatosplenomegaly. She also has no rash, bruising, or petechiae. The lack of hepatosplenomegaly may indicate that the patient has no signs of extramedullary hematopoiesis. Patients with hemolytic processes resulting in anemia may present with signs of scleral icterus, jaundice, and hepatosplenomegaly resulting from increased red cell destruction. In fact, in an emergency department setting, the clinical detection of jaundice was found to have sensitivity and specificity of only approximately 70 percent. To continue with our case, then what were the patient's labs consistent with: Initial CBC showed: WBC 8.5K, RBC 1.14 (L), Hgb 1.5gm/dL; Hct 6.1, MCV 53.5, and an elevated RDW 37.7. Initial platelet count was 50K, reticulocyte count 1.1% Peripheral smear revealed no blasts, thrombocytopenia - with occasional medium-sized platelets - ghost cells and anisocytosis/poikilocytosis- which appears most consistent with iron deficiency. It was interesting that the patient had thrombocytopenia Absolutely, typically with Iron deficiency, there is thrombocytosis (erythropoietin is increased which closely mimics thrombopoietin stimulates platelets). In fact, both act via the non-TK, JAK-STAT pathway. OK, to summarize, we have: Two year old with severe anemia most likely secondary to iron deficiency. As you think about our case, what would be your differential? For any patient with acute severe anemia presenting to the PICU- One has to think in terms of blood loss, decreased or impaired production (i.e bone marrow failure), or peripheral blood destruction (i.e hemolysis). Here would be the organizations: Blood loss Decreased or impaired production Increased destruction Let's go into detail for each: Blood loss can be internal or external (due to trauma, excessive blood draws, due to surgery)-typically gives rise to normochromic normocytic anemia. Decreased or impaired production: Deficiency of substances needed for Hgb & RBC production such as iron Vit B12 etc. Depression of BM due to infection (parvo B), chemicals, pharmacologic agents or immune mechanisms. Bone marrow aplasia can be idiopathic with or without congenital anomalies. Infiltration of BM due to malignancies such as leukemia, Hodgkin disease,...
