Dr Nadia Khan on Instagram: "🩸Iron & sleep- What’s the connection? Low iron doesn’t only affect energy — it affects sleep. Iron helps the brain make dopamine (settling), supports serotonin + melatonin (sleep signals), and powers mitochondria (deep rest). So if your child is 🥱restless at night/ kicks a lot 🥱can’t switch off, 🥱 wakes tired, or 🥱 seems ‘tired but wired’, it may be worth checking their iron stores even if Haemoglobin is normal. ✨Sometimes it’s not behaviour. It’s biology.✨ Save
