Yes' it can be a sign of low iron. My mother witch is 72 yrs old was chewing ice all the time. She told her doctor about it and she checked her iron and it was low. She has been on iron pills ever sence.

I've never heard of that.
Because ice is just frozen water.
And drinking water doesnt mean you have iron issues.

might as well mean you got sugar issues, a lot of people are diabetic without even knowing it. If you're often thirsty and tired you might want to see a doc asap
