Low Iron

My iron level is very low. Just found out today. I'm taking bariatric advantage chewable but it seems that is not enough & they are thinking of giving me a prescription for a special kind of iron. I worked in the pharmacy business so this is not good news. I bought some broccoli tomorrow I want to make broccoli with cheese.

Does anyone know anything I can cook that has iron? I can eat steak and I stock my fridge with steak today. I want to have different meals. I was told to continue taking my vitamins iron and calcium.

Liver yuk lol

I know yuck! But it won't kill me. I'll try to make it tasty. Hubby used to make me eat it before giving birth.

To boost the amount of Iron in your diet, try these foods:

Red meat

Egg yolks

Dark, leafy greens (spinach, collards)

Dried fruit (prunes, raisins)

Iron-enriched cereals and grains (check the labels)

Mollusks (oysters, clams, scallops)

Turkey or chicken giblets

Beans, lentils, chick peas and soybeans

Liver

Artichokes

I love spinach raw is food can is good but I like cheese in it. It's one of those hit or miss vegi's you either love it or hate it. But

It is so packed with Iron it's amazing.

I eat spinach a lot and it goes down well and does not make me sick. I sautee it in a pan with lil olive oil, garlic and can't believe it's not butter. I can almost eat it as a meal.

I'm gonna have to try it. I had a little broccoli with cheese today. It was yummy but I could fit much. I'm hooked on crystal light iced tea.
