Brandon Luu: Can Iron Deficiency Cause Fatigue Without Anemia?

Brandon Luu, Respirology Fellow at Queen’s University, shared a post on X about a recent article by Paul Vaucher et al., published in CMAJ, adding:

“Iron deficiency can make you tired even without anemia.

In a randomized trial of tired, non-anemic women with low ferritin, fatigue scores fell 48% with iron vs 29% with placebo.”

Title: Effect of iron supplementation on fatigue in nonanemic menstruating women with low ferritin: a randomized controlled trial
