Potential for iron enriched yeast in recovery of rats from iron deficiency
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kyyaly, A., & Powell, C. Potential for iron enriched yeast in recovery of rats from iron deficiency.

It is well known that iron deficiency can lead to anemia, resulting in a variety of symptoms and health issues. Negative effects can be prevented by ensuring foods with a naturally high iron content are ingested, or countered by taking nutrient supp...
