Zinc Deficiency Linked to Lower Cognitive Function in Iron-Deficient Females
Iron deficiency and zinc deficiency can affect cognitive function in females. A study was done with 41 females with iron deficiency anemia and 40 healthy females. The study found that lower zinc levels were associated with lower cognitive scores in females with iron deficiency anemia. This suggests that zinc deficiency may play a role in cognitive function in females with iron deficiency anemia.
