Used in Heme b as an electron carrier for a bond with O2
When you don't have enough, your cells, and therfore entire body, will not get enough Oxygen, and the cells will stop working properly.
When you have too much iron, the iron acts as a catalist to split the Hydrogen Peroxide in the cell to to Hydroxyl radicals, which will eventually kill the cell. When there is too much iron in circulation, organs, particularly the heart and liver, are damaged.
Iron StatesCalcium, as most know, is used to create and maintain both the bone and tooth shell.
When you don't have enough, you can get muscle problems, extreme fatigue, dental problems, and depression.
When you have too much in you blood, you can get nausea, dry mouth, abdominal pain, confusion, irregular heartbeat, and even death.
ExitPotassium is used as an electrolyte, regulates fluid balance, and regulates muscle contractions.
When you lack potassium, you will feel weakness and fatigue, get muscle craps, digestive problems, heart palpitations, muscle aches, stiffness, numbness, breathing dfficulties, and mood changes.
When you have too much potassium, your heart may beat irregularly, which may cause a heart attack.
ExitUsed to transfer Oxygen from the lungs to pretty much everywhere else through red blood cells.
