Iron - the secret of your health and energy
Imagine your body as a factory working at full capacity, providing energy, growth, and cell repair, with iron as the fuel that keeps it running. If iron reserves are depleted, you immediately feel tired, weak, have heart palpitations, or paler skin. Other symptoms of iron deficiency include brittle nails, dry hair, shortness of breath, sleep problems, reduced concentration, cold extremities, increased susceptibility to infections, and anemia (a lack of red blood cells caused by too little iron in the body) manifesting as extreme fatigue. In anemia, the body is not adequately supplied with oxygen and tires quickly. A signal of iron deficiency may also be bruising, as this mineral plays an important role in the production of hemoglobin, which supports the proper function of platelets.

The fungus can survive in it for a longer period. The fungus literally controls the host's body, growing out of its body in summer, forming slender "sticks" 5-20 cm high. This inspired the video game series Last of Us where the Cordyceps fungus turns humankind into zombies. In real life, this video game unfolds in the actual life of insects. The victims are larvae of butterflies, large ants, spiders...
