I did learn all this in school but l forgot nearly everything l learnt, as l tend to just go with the up to date basic nutrition. I always thought l was pretty clued up when it came to nutrition, but obviously l am not.

Just want to get better, and never thought that taking vitamins was good for us, and that getting most from food was the best way. But when unwell, it is better take vitamins than continue being sick.

My mum always believes in eating a very healthy diet, instead of taking any kind of vitamins, she has always been healthy, and is healthier than me.
But l have eating issues all my life and that along with maybe drinking too much wine, wasn't a good mix. But each time l got a blood test l was in excellent health, except the iron. So iron was the one l concentrated on. If my blood tests results showed that l was deficient in something l would have been on top of it straight away. So l guess that's what makes me think it has nothing to do with
Nutrient deficiency, maybe the wine.
