Most Common Nutrient Deficiencies
Posted by PrimalRx Team on
The most common nutrient deficiencies include:
- Iron: Often leads to anemia, especially in women, children, and individuals with poor dietary intake.
- Vitamin D: Common due to limited sun exposure and dietary sources; can affect bone health and immune function.
- Vitamin B12: Particularly prevalent in vegetarians, vegans, and older adults, affecting energy levels and neurological function.
- Folate (Vitamin B9): Important for cell division; deficiencies can occur in pregnant women and those with poor dietary intake.
- Calcium: Commonly deficient, especially in women and those who avoid dairy products; affects bone health.
- Magnesium: Often overlooked, low levels can impact muscle and nerve function, as well as heart health.
- Vitamin A: Particularly prevalent in developing countries, affecting vision and immune function.
- Zinc: Common in individuals with poor dietary variety or certain health conditions, impacting immune function and wound healing.
Addressing these deficiencies typically involves dietary adjustments, supplementation, and healthcare guidance.
Fortunately, our Bovine Liver product ALONE takes care of 5 of these - 2 significantly (Vitamin B12, Vitamin A), and 3 with considerable amounts (Iron, Folate, Zinc). The best part being, our supplement is just as good as the “real-food” format we actually absorb, and all of these nutrients are in their most bioavailable “animal-based” format.
For reference, here is a general breakdown of the vitamins and minerals in Bovine Liver per 100 grams (3.5 ounces):
Vitamins
- Vitamin A: Approximately 16,000 IU (320% of the Daily Value, DV)
- Vitamin B12: About 70 micrograms (1167% DV)
- Vitamin B6: 0.8 milligrams (50% DV)
- Folate: 145 micrograms (36% DV)
- Vitamin C: 27 milligrams (30% DV)
Minerals
- Iron: 6.2 milligrams (35% DV)
- Zinc: 4.0 milligrams (27% DV)
- Copper: 12.0 milligrams (133% DV)
- Phosphorus: 340 milligrams (34% DV)
- Selenium: 39 micrograms (56% DV)
