Common symptoms
- Persistent fatigue
- Pale skin or brittle nails (iron)
- Numbness/tingling or memory issues (B12)
- Diagnosed via blood test
What it involves
Oral or injectable supplementation depending on severity, plus identifying why the deficiency occurred in the first place.
What to expect
Energy levels typically improve within a few weeks of starting supplementation, though full correction takes longer.
