... Read moreLow iron or iron deficiency anemia is a common condition, particularly among women, and it requires ongoing attention even after initial treatment. The repeated 'PSA for the low iron girlies' highlights the importance of awareness and management of this condition. Iron plays a vital role in producing hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. Without enough iron, individuals may experience fatigue, weakness, and other health issues. For women of color, such as those identified by the hashtag #browngirl, iron deficiency can be especially prevalent due to dietary differences, menstrual blood loss, and other health disparities. Recognizing early symptoms such as persistent tiredness, pale skin, or shortness of breath is crucial to seek timely medical advice. While iron supplements are commonly prescribed, some individuals struggle with adherence due to side effects or a mistaken belief that they no longer need them once symptoms improve. Continuous monitoring and possibly dietary adjustments are important to maintain healthy iron levels. Foods rich in iron, such as lean meats, spinach, and legumes, can support iron intake alongside supplements. It is advised that individuals consult healthcare professionals for personalized treatment plans, including the appropriate type and dosage of iron supplements. In some cases, underlying causes of anemia must be identified and treated to avoid recurrence. This PSA serves as a reminder that managing low iron is often an ongoing process requiring dedication and awareness to maintain optimal health.

A woman in sunglasses and a pink top sits in a car, holding a white shaker bottle. Text overlays introduce her thoughts on intermittent fasting from a fitness coach's perspective.
A plate features a half-eaten avocado toast with egg and supplements, alongside a glass. Text explains intermittent fasting involves designated eating and fasting hours for fat loss and cell repair.
An overhead view shows two plates of burgers and fries, with a drink, on a wooden table. Text indicates the author's opinion on intermittent fasting is in the caption.
DOES INTERMITTENT FASTING REALLY WORK FOR FATLOSS?
In my opinion…yes and no, and here’s why. About a month ago I stopped tracking my nutrition fully. It was probably one of the best decisions that I’ve made and has really allowed me to learn how to trust myself with nutrition. That being said, I wanted to continue my fatloss journey, so I th
