Apparently if you crave ice cubes you are malnutritioned or iron deficient??

I don't know if this will help, but my aunt is anemic and she craves ice all the time. You might want to talk to a Dr. about this. I hope this helps.

There's no iron or nutrition in ice cubes, so it wouldn't be a very effective way to fulfill either need. Maybe you're just thirsty!

yes.... but only if you have a metal

Some women who have iron-deficiency anemia crave ice until the deficiency is cured.

But craving ice cubes is not a sure sign of iron deficiency. The only way to know for sure is to get your blood tested in a medical laboratory.

i don't know it means your malnutritioned but iron deficientcy mainly causes to have less body strength then usual and you sleep alot more. easy way to fix that is eating more meat.
