Iron absorption interference inhibits the body's ability to absorb iron, potentially leading to iron deficiency and related symptoms such as fatigue and weakness. This occurs when substances bind to iron, preventing its absorption in the small intestine.

Iron absorption interference refers to the disruption of the body's ability to absorb iron from dietary sources or supplements. This can occur due to various factors, including the presence of certain substances that bind to iron and prevent its uptake in the small intestine. Symptoms of iron deficiency resulting from this interference may include fatigue, weakness, pale skin, shortness of breath, dizziness, headache, cold hands and feet, brittle nails, and pica (craving non-food substances). Prolonged iron deficiency can lead to iron deficiency anemia.
