AND SIDEROPAENIC ANAEMIA IS NECESSARY? Ferric pyrophosphate conveyed

within a phospholipid membrane
Iron-deficiency anaemia is caused by: • In lacking states or in increased needs • In case of malabsorption problems
• low iron-rich food intake (i.e.: red meat, • During pregnancy and breastfeeding • In anaemia due to kidney failure
legumes, fish, oily dried fruit)
• altered intestinal absorption
• In case of copious menstrual flow • In case of blood donation
