What are the symptoms of an iron deficiency?
Iron deficiency is when there is not enough iron in the blood. It can lead to symptoms such as fatigue and dizziness, among many others.
Iron is a mineral that is vital for many bodily functions. It supports the transportation of oxygen in the blood. It is also essential for the correct development and functioning of cells, and the production of some hormones and tissues.
If a person's iron levels fall too low, it can disrupt these functions and may lead to iron-deficiency anemia. In most cases, this condition is easily treatable.
This article will discuss the symptoms of iron deficiency, as well as when to see a doctor.
Symptoms
Tired fatigue and sad or stressed woman sitting on edge of bed.
Iron-deficiency anemia can cause fatigue and dizziness.
The symptoms of an iron deficiency vary, depending on its severity, as well as a person's overall health.
For a mild or moderate iron deficiency, a person may not experience any noticeable symptoms.
Sometimes, a lack of iron can lead to iron-deficiency anemia. This is when the body does not have enough red blood cells or hemoglobin in the blood.
Iron-deficiency anemia can cause symptoms that include:
~ fatigue
~ weakness
~ dizziness
~ headaches
~ sensitivity to temperature
~ cold hands and feet
~ shortness of breath
~ chest pain
~ difficulty concentrating
~ heart palpitations
~ restless leg syndrome
~ cravings for nonfood items, such as ice or dirt
There are also several physical signs of an iron deficiency to look out for, such as:
~ brittle nails
~ cracks at the sides of the mouth
~ hair loss
~ inflammation of the tongue
~ abnormally pale or yellow skin
~ irregular heartbeat or breathing
Causes
Cooked baked beans in dish on wooden table
Beans are a healthful plant-based source of iron.
Iron deficiencies occur when an insufficient amount of iron is present in the blood.
There are several potential causes for a lack of iron, including the following:
> Diet
Iron is in many different types of foods, including fish, fortified cereals, beans, meat, and leafy green vegetables.
The National Institutes of Health recommend that male adults get 8 milligrams (mg) of iron per day and that female adults get 18 mg per day before 50 years of age and 8 mg after that age.
> Iron malabsorption
Some medical conditions and medications may prevent the body from absorbing iron properly, even when a person is eating plenty of iron-rich foods.
Conditions that can cause problems with iron absorption include:
~ intestinal and digestive conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease
~ gastrointestinal surgery, such as gastric bypass surgery
~ rare genetic mutations
> Blood loss
Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells. It contains most of the body's iron. For this reason, blood loss can result in iron deficiencies and anemia.
Blood loss can be a result of injury, or too frequent blood tests or donations. But it can also occur with certain conditions or medications, including:
~ internal bleeding from ulcers or colon cancer
~ regular use of aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
~ heavy menstrual periods
~ urinary tract bleeding
~ rare genetic conditions
~ surgery
> Other conditions
Other conditions that may cause iron deficiency include:
~ kidney failure
~ congestive heart failure
~ obesity
Iron is particularly important during periods of growth. For this reason, children and pregnant women have a higher risk of developing iron deficiency and anemia than others.

NIGERIA PASTORS PROMOTE CORRUPTION IN THE PULPIT AND IN POLITICS

By Yakubu Jimoh / February 26, 2019
Nigeria Presidential Election was conducted on 23rd February 2019, in the last two months with political parties jostling for the presidency seat in the country. There have been seventy-one contenders, while the person of President Buhari and Atiku Abubakar are the most popular candidates.
In Nigeria 2015, when the incumbent president Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was seeking re-election, he took the messages of his campaign to the churches. The church leaders were majorly part of his strength for his second term bid as the Nigeria President, during that time a lot of controversies were experienced in the nation, even though it’s clearly absurd that Religious leaders shouldn’t bring politics to discuss on the pulpit of the church.
But due to greediness and the pastor’s selfish interest, they have immediately indoctrinated the church into politics. After this major event, a lot of Nigeria pastors started by spewing prophecies that the incumbent will emerge as the president, even the popular Apostle Suleman wasn’t spared from the prophecies as he instructed Nigerians and the church that God spoke to him about the incumbent re-election.
Christian Association of Nigeria, (CAN), President Ayo Ortjisafor was part of the major deal, as he was the leader for the Christian body in Nigeria, his private jet was even seized with a lot of illegal money taken in and out of the country during the election. Millions of dollars were actually paid out of the country treasury to the pastors in order for them to canvass for votes and support them.
Towards that election , which the incumbent president lost the election, which saw the installation of a retired major general and a former head of state from the Northern part of Nigeria being sworn in as the new president. Being a Muslim, he still tried to play an open and equality hands to both religious leaders.
Now, the incumbent president is seeking his second term bid for the no one seat in the country, a lot of Nigeria pastors have come hard on him this time around telling their followers not to vote for him, rather they should vote for a thief.
In the Holy Bible it’s clearly stated in “John 10:10 ESV”
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly”.
This current president has not been patronising church leaders like the former did by sharing millions of dollars from the national treasury, can we now say it’s the major cause why they are against his government? And they are proposing that “An Established Thief” should replace him.
The Bible also has this to say about thieves: 1 Corinthians 6:10 ESV /
“Nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God”. This bible passage explains to us that the thieves will nowhere to be found in the kingdom of God. And it’s generally believed that, thieves will support one another in order to be able to penetrate to steal, rob, destroy and kill.
Bishop Oyedepo was even part of the reconciliation team between Former Nigeria President Chief Olusegun Obasanjo and Atiku Abubakar, and it was widely rumoured that the pastor is after his own political interest, which generated a lot of revenues for his church and himself.
General Overseers like Apostle Suleman, Bishop Oyedepo, Pastor Joshua Iginla, and even the current CAN president was spotted in Ibadan last week Sunday preaching that Christians shouldn’t vote for the incumbent president.
Does that now mean that Nigerian Pastors Supporting Thieves are also thieves ?

MEET PAULA INGABIRE 36-YEARS-OLD RWANDAN TECHNOLOGY ACTIVIST, POLITICIAN AND MOTHER TO THREE KIDS

Paula Ingabire is a Rwandan technology enthusiast and politician who serves as the Minister of Information and communications technology and Innovation in the Cabinet of Rwanda since 18 October 2018. She has extensive experience in IT and made her marks for the past nine years as an innovator.
Prior to her appointment, Ingabire was the Head of the ICT Business Development Department of the Rwanda Development Board and Coordinator of the Kigali Innovation City Initiative.

Ms. Paula is part of Girls in ICT Rwanda and has also been at the helm of Transform Africa, a platform that brings together innovators and policy makers across Africa to shape Africa’s digital transformation agenda.
As a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s School of Engineering & Sloan School of Management, in System Design and Management she also holds a BS in Computer Engineering and Information Technology from the former Kigali Institute of Science and Technology.
The tech expert joined the reshuffled cabinet of President Paul Kagame who reduced the members of cabinet from 31 to 26. The cabinet is composed of 50% women making Rwanda and Ethiopia the only two African countries with gender equality in their governments.
“To ensure smartphones become affordable, different strategies are needed to ensure each household has a smart device and digital literacy. We hope that the plant to locally produce smartphones will boost access.” Ingabire said.
Paula Ingabire recently announced that Rwanda is joining the list of nations that will be producing smartphone by April 2019. The news came as a surprise since the tech industry in Africa is not well developed. She took the initiative with her wealth of knowledge and came up with solution to the technology industry.
She also added “Once the factory starts producing smartphones the citizens of Rwanda will be paying in instalments over a period of 24 months.
