Your energy, mood, immunity, and brain performance are not just about calories or workouts – they’re powered by three essential nutrients working in sync: Vitamin B12, Iron, and Vitamin D. Together, they form what scientists call the “Metabolic Triangle.”
In this episode of Dr. Washbrains, we dive deep into:
– How Vitamin B12 drives your nervous system and prevents fatigue.
– Why Iron is critical for oxygen transport, cognition, and energy metabolism.
– The role of Vitamin D in immunity, hormones, and mental health.
– How deficiencies in even one of these nutrients can trigger a cascade of health issues, ranging from brain fog and anxiety to weakened immunity and chronic fatigue.
– Evidence-based strategies to test, correct, and optimise these nutrient levels for long-term health.
This isn’t just theory. We break down the latest clinical research, real-world case studies, and actionable steps you can start applying today to rebuild your metabolism from the ground up.
If you’ve been struggling with low energy, poor focus, frequent illness, or unexplained fatigue, this episode will help you understand the hidden link behind it all and what you can do to fix it.
Watch till the end to learn how to harness the Metabolic Triangle for stronger immunity, sharper cognition, and a healthier body.
