Generation

Iron absorption occurs primarily in the duodenum through both heme (from meat, ~25% absorbed) and non-heme (from plants, ~5% absorbed) pathways, regulated by hepcidin based on body iron stores. Iron deficiency develops in stages: depleted iron stores (low ferritin), then iron-deficient erythropoiesis (low transferrin saturation), and finally iron deficiency anemia (low hemoglobin), causing fatigue, pallor, and impaired cognitive function. **Key formula:** **Transferrin saturation (%) = (Serum Iron / Total Iron Binding Capacity) × 100** (normal: 20-45%; <16% suggests deficiency) Absorption is enhanced by vitamin C and inhibited by phytates, calcium, and tannins.
