Adverse Reactions to Elemental Iron Supplements Meeting your daily iron recommendation is important, and you may have to take supplements to get what you need. Iron's primary function is carrying oxygen through your blood and delivering it to cells, tissues and all of your organs.
Iron is a mineral needed by our bodies. Iron is a part of all cells and does many things in our bodies. For example, iron (as part of the protein hemoglobin) carries oxygen from our lungs throughout our bodies. Having too little hemoglobin is called anemia. Iron also helps our muscles store and use oxygen. Iron is a part of many enzymes and is used in many cell functions. Enzymes help our bodies digest foods and also help with many other important reactions that occur within our bodies.
