Hiya to all
Does anyone know if there's a link between an anxiety,panic and
depression with low iron and B vitamins and also if they have suffered with this
what have they taken to help
Thanks

Deficiancy in iron and B vitimins 6 and 12 contribute to depression and anxiety, and I always feel better with iron and a B vitimin complex around that time of the month. You aren't meant to take iron unless you are low on it though.
Some people on here have tried Jarrows Vitimin B "B-Right" formula and some say it works wonders - its around 11 pounds on Amazon. You could try that if you want, as long as you don't mind neon pee!
Supplements will never get rid of the anxiety completely, take them if you know it will aid you or help you cope in getting better overall.
Take care.

There have been many studies on the B12, B3 and iron and it's contributions to anxiety.
The B vitamins contribute to proper nervous system functioning.
Many people have experienced a loss of anxiety symptoms with large vitamin supplementation of they were deficient.
Low iron can cause anxiety directly actually. My doctor did iron tests when I told him about anxiety. It's common. There are many books you can read on this and there is a lot of well-researched and trusted literature you can read online as well on the subject.
