Foods that are a good source of iron?!


Question: Foods that are a good source of iron?
I'm on my period (first one) and I think i'm losing iron n such. What are some foods that are full of iron and what is best to eat while on your period? Thanks!

Answers:

All green leafy vegetables are full of iron as bananas and apples. Most importantly expose your body to direct sunlight for some time daily or as many times as you can for your body to be able to assimilate iron from your food. Eat fruits alone as a separate meal and vegetables raw as far as possible. Vitamin A is an essential one which you get in these sources and it helps our body in absorbing iron



See the link below for what to eat and also what NOT to eat:

Meat/fish/poultry
Fruits: Orange, Orange Juice, cantaloupe, strawberries, grapefruit etc
Vegetables: Broccoli, brussels sprouts, tomato, tomato juice, potato, green & red peppers
