The first thing I did today is watch this video. I was diagnosed anemia in 2010 and quit my job afterwards. One year later after taking iron pills and feeding myself with nutritious food, I got better.
Thank you! I have been searching diligently for over a week for an organizational structure for anemias and hematological disorders. I am so excited to have discovered this concise yet thorough explanation, it’s exactly what I needed. Thank you! Can’t wait to explore your channel.
Copper is required to keep iron in homeostasis. Low copper creates anemia -- low iron in the blood. How much iron is stuck in the tissues because copper is low? Good question! Dr. Bruce Ames, PhD did research in 2004 that showed 10x more iron can be stuck in the tissues than in the blood. Copper is required to put iron in heme, heme into hemoglobin, and hemoglobin into red blood cells. The life span of blood cells depends on its ceruloplasmin-bound copper binding status. Copper also fires cytochrome c oxidase, which splits all the oxygen you breath when functioning correctly. Copper alao fires all oxidase enzymes. All this and you may not find copper listed on one "nutrition label" in a major grocery store. The Royals know, though. They refer to themselves as "Blue Bloods" in honor of their bio-copper status.

This video discusses how low hemoglobin is actually caused by low copper in almost all cases. 96% of iron used in blood cells is supposed to be recycled. Copper manages that recycling process.

I found this video this morning I'm anamic since a child and until now. Thank you Dr I will follow up with your videos to help my self. My body don't accept iron pills.
So is it the case that B12 can be plentiful in your blood but is not indicative of what's being absorbed, which can mean that a blood test for B12 is not necessarily accurate?
I think a problem is writing off anemia as one cause when a woman might have heavy periods, be having a low iron and B12 vegetarian diet and a high stress situation with IBS reducing the uptake of nutrients. I don't think you can fully explore all of that in a ten minute appointment, so the GP goes with the easiest one to treat in 10 minutes, but may not have fully solved the problem.
Thanks for uploading informative information about anaemia ,but i have failed to understand that why doctors prescribed only 'iron' tablets and not including 'folic acid; and vitamin b 12 .
Thank you Dr. Campbell for another excellent video, liking, sharing..! I have question toward bottom. My Feb 2023 bloodwork labs show flags for slightly low CBC values of below, slight anemia: WBC 3.9 RBC 4.08 Hemoglobin 12.8 Hematocrit 39.2 MCV High Normal 96.1 All other values normal. Watching this and another video of yours, I'm thinking rather than iron deficiency it could be slight B12, Folate deficiency. I do eat a moderate amount of meat, eggs, dairy, with goal of eating more of these. Otherwise, excellent real whole food eat the rainbow diet for decades. I'm 65, male, super healthy, great skin color, excellent energy, very active, exercise regularly, BMI = 24, no meds, no medical conditions. I work in Sprouts Farmers Market Vitamins Department last 10 years and have access to B12 Methylcobalamin, Methyl Folate, B6 combination supplements I could take. Is there any way to tell if my slight anemia is iron deficiency, or B Vitamins deficiency, production deficiency (i.e. determine specific anemia type)..? If I start eating more meat, both iron deficiency and B vitamin deficiencies most likely would be resolved... But it would be nice to pinpoint what's really going on with my scenario. My doctor blood labs comments that just slight deficiency, we'll monitor moving forward. Sorry for long comment, but wanted to try and set the scene properly. Thank you..!
This is an amazing example of mind map which can greatly enhance ACP training! Thank you Dr Campbell! Ps I'm loving your physiology and pathophysiology books!!:)
How many came here after been given low iron blood test results.. lol Mine is currently 19 and the mental fatigue definitely high with frequent dizzy spells. I thought it's weird as I have a decent diet for iron. No one mentions B12 or folic acid. Let alone the different types of issues. Shocking really you have to find this all out yourself 🙄😂. Thank you DR Campbell!!
How are your levels now? My daughter was only diagnosed in Dec 2023 after dizzy spells. Difficulty breathing and anorexia( not feeling like eating) plus paleness. She eats a balanced diet and is so active usually.
Isn't it a lack of iron that causes this? I've noticed a lot of vegetarians are very pale and look 'anaemic' because they don't get enough iron that omnivores derive from red meat or is that just a simplistic way of looking at it seeing as 'haemoglobins' are intrinsically biochemically consisting of oxidised iron giving it its red colour?
I have p. V anemia is a issue,at diagnoses and to date, symtoms chest pains dizzy memory alsorts big qs if my numbers are niw in normal range due to medications, and my symtoms remain the same would it be right for hemotolugist to say it's not hemo prob and heart Dr's say it's not heart prob ha, I'm no Dr but I think you just explained exactly what I was thinking and been saying to Dr's for 7yrs now already had heartattattack,
Is soft pale gums that are constantly shedding and sensitive part of anaemia.I got a dental check everything fine I was told to speak to my doctor re anaemia.I have to wait another week for an appointment.It has been happening for around 2/3 months.Thanks in advance
Well, pale coloured mucous membrane can be a feature of anaemia. Clearly if you are worried about anaemia you need to get the doctor to do a blood test. I agree, its a pity to have a weeks delay just to see a medic. Worth considering your diet, are you getting enough vitamin C?
RA inflammation produces more hepcidin and blocks iron absorption in the duodenum....CBC is up and down depending on the amount of hepcidin released. Sometimes Anti-TNF's work to reduce inflammation and also JAK inhibitors....never 100 % but enough to bring some numbers back; MCV is a good factor to watch also...THXS DR. J
Hi Doctor, my mum had low platelet count of 20. She could not have bone marrow test because she is 89. She is taking sterods 10mg, amlodipine amlife for her hypertension and galvus for her diabetes. We don't really know what is the cause of her low platelet count and what is the natural treatment.
My anemia is from great blood loss daily for 3 years until the blood loss is corrected I will become well hopefully meanwhile I've been taking iron pills 325mg 3 times a day.....yuk But its most important you take diet in to consideration make sure you get enough folate, b12, b9 and lots of apple juice any thing containing no calcium or low calcium but high vitamin C
I just want to share that when I took soft jell vitamin D my body didnt absorb but I changed to reg pill and I've improved started feeling less sad, less irritable, I regret not taking my vitamins 3 years ago specially with so much blood loss I lost all my nutrients not to metion 3 years ago I went vegan it only messes me up more your body needs to heal and without proper diet your only going to deteriorate
Dr. Campbell, copper's role in maintaining iron homeostasis is prevalent throughout the research literature, but doesn't make it to the medical schools. The question that needs to be asked in all cases of anemia is: "how do you know that I'm not Anemic due to chronic disease caused by iron overload in my tissues as a result of a copper deficiency (ferroxidase, a copper multi-oxidase, to be precise)? The answer is they don't know. I heard a patient ask a doctor that exact question and the response was, "well, we have no evidence of that." Translation -- "we don't look, we don't get paid to do it, and we don't care." She received the iron infusion days ahead of Heart surgery. Her nose began to bleed like someone turned on a faucet. It would not stop of its own accord. Her nostril tissue was cautetized. Still bled. And bled. And bled. Her nose tissue was cauterized again, and the bleeding finally stopped, but the *root causr* of the bleeding was never officially identified. Since the body has no good way to get rid of significant absorbed iron, it has to bleed as a crisis level counter-measure to iron poisoning. I hypothesize that early menstruation in girls is caused due to iron overload in the tissues. Basically, iron homeostasis is dysregulated due to bio-copper deficiencies (ceruloplasmin-bound copper, ferroxidase, hephaestin, zyklopen, etc...). Every day tons of rusty metallic iron filings are added to the food supply that were never added before. NPK fertilizer dorsn't contains copper and blocks copper absorption. Glyohosate chelates copper so the body can't use it. High fructose corn syrup blocks copper absorption. Anything that stimulates metallothionein causes copper to bind with it leading to depletion. Think stress and zinc supplements. Ceruloplasmin, the multi-copper oxidase copper transport enzyme, translates to "blue blood." Crabs with copper in place of heme have blue blood. The Royals call themselves Blue Bloods. They know something they aren't telling "the rabble," kind of like what they did with vaccine "efficacy and safety." I call Covid-19 by the name CovFeFe because it is a more precise name. Whatever the New Crown Virus is, it is causing ferritin to acutely dump its stored iron, which is now reactive, into the cells before being ejected into the serum. Just try to find a confirmed CovFeFe death where ferritin in the serum isn't sky high. That serum ferritin really represents reactive iron dumped inside the cells in short order, which is exactly the sort of thing that results in cytokine storms.

Love Dr Campbell, just like listening to a kind uncle who happens to be a brilliant doctor.
Sir , when I was in my ist year I used to watch ist your lecture on heart ,💖💖
Now I'm in 4th year .
Been two years now but still the most relevant, informative and up to date video on anemia...God bless
less time, more knowledge.
thank you so much Dr..
Although I arabic but I'm understand you , thank you so much dr Campbell 🌸
Who else got mesmerized by that gorgeous pen and had to look up what it was? (Appears to be a Shaeffer 440 Imperial, now I might need to buy one lol.)

Either of these will reduce the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood, so both can cause anaemia.

is pallor due to constriction of skin's blood vessels or reduce in RBCs number in passing throug the skin?
both of these can cause pallor

Check your copper as well. Blood test ceruloplasmin. Very important if low in iron.
