@doctorsood: Spinach is packed with nutrients—including iron—but it’s the non-heme type, which our bodies absorb less easily, especially because of oxalates. Pairing spinach with vitamin C (like tomatoes or citrus) can help boost iron absorption. So yes, spinach is good—just remember to give your body a little extra help in getting the most out of it. Did you grow up thinking spinach was the best iron source? #medical #health #healthtips #spinach #iron #nutrition VC: @gnarlymarli

so what I'm hearing is my protein pasta salad with spinach, cherry tomatoes, and lemon juice vinaigrette is quite effective?

Too much spinach can increase risk of oxalate kidney stones, right?

I’ve been vegetarian all my life and have never had low iron. Just because non heme isn’t absorbed AS easily doesn’t mean it’s not absorbed easily. I donate blood every 2 months and while some meat eaters get turned away I never have.

I have malabsorption issues, so even though my diet is good, ferrous fumarate has been an absolute game changer for me... normal menstrual cycle again, less brain fog, better sleep...

Eating raw … not so good for the body. Sauté to get more benefits

What, like it’s hard? :
As someone with PCOS (heavy periods) and bad anemia, a chipotle steak burrito bowl comes in clutch when you feel like trash! Beans, beef, and lime juice 💪

suffered with anemia or borderline anemia for years. Iron pills would make me nauseous. What worked for me was eating liver.

also, doesn't consuming calcium block the iron from binding to the blood? I read up on blood iron so I could not be rejected for donating platelets.

Parsley leaves also contains a lot of iron and you can make salads or pesto with it (so it's in a higher quantity)
