Question:

My friend has anemia, what foods should I suggest she eat, and what foods prevent the absorption of iron?

— FJR (Frank) Reliegos

Answer:

I eat a lot of leafy greens and when I do go to the position, he's always impressed with my iron level. And the fact that I don't take an iron supplement and that I don't eat red meat my suggestion would be for your friend or you to connect with a registered dietitian and ask more specific questions. But for me personally leafy greens like dark leafy greens like kale arugula spinach other things like that that are also iron rich It's a little bit of iron and raisins. I hope that helps and I wish your friend a speedy return to a good hemoglobin.
