RED MEAT is probably the number 1 source of iron.
liver
lean red meats, including beef, pork, lamb
seafood, such as oysters, clams, tuna, salmon, and shrimp, etc.
beans, including kidney, lima, navy, black, pinto, soy beans, and lentils
iron fortified whole grains, including cereals, breads, rice, and pasta
greens, including collard greens, kale, mustard greens, spinach, and turnip greens
tofu
vegetables, including broccoli, swiss chard, asparagus, parsley, watercress, brussel sprouts
chicken and turkey
blackstrap molasses
nuts
egg yolks
dried fruits, such as raisins, prunes, dates and apricots
Vitamin C enhances the body's absorption in iron, so it would be good to eat salads from both perspectives. Drinking OJ with steak would be a great way to absorb a lot of iron!
good luck!
leafy greens
raisins
Almonds, Cashews, Clams, Dried beans, Liver, Rasins, Salmon, Shrimp, Spinach, Tofu, Walnuts
