@roxyandben: What I (now) eat in a day as someone recently diagnosed with an iron deficiency 💪 🔥 25mg iron 🔥 86g protein 🔥 44g fibre Since finding out I was severely low in iron, I’ve been working on rebuilding my levels - not just through supplements, but also by looking at my diet. I also realised that I was already eating lots of iron-rich foods, but I wasn’t doing enough to absorb it. Iron absorption is one of those things that can be really difficult to calculate accurately, but I follow the following principles to make the most of it: 👉 eat a variety of iron rich foods 👉 pair meals with vitamin C as often as possible 👉 avoid drinking tea and coffee before or after meals If you’re looking for iron-rich plant-based meals, you’ll find these recipes via the @sovegan website and app. You can also meal-prep these recipes. The brownies can be stored at room temperature for a few days, while the dhal can be frozen for up to 3 months! 🌿 Caramelised Banana Porridge 🌿 Crispy Quinoa Salad + Tempeh Bacon 🌿 Black Bean + Date Brownies 🌿 Spinach Dhal Sign up today with a free 7-day free trial - you’ll also find over 600 delicious plant-based recipes - with more shared every week 🙌 Big love, Roxy #veganrecipes #plantbasedrecipes #womenshealth #irondeficiency #healthyrecipes

I love this ‘iron absorption is a dark art’ lol, this is so true. Sometimes it’s like magic

I learned recently that thyme has a huge iron content. 1 tsp = 1.2mg of iron. a super easy addition to meals

I love this and love how thoughtful you are with the pairing + vitamin C! I’m vegetarian and recently found out I’m iron deficient, so I’ve been deep in an iron rabbit hole 🥲 From what I’ve learned, plant-based iron is non-heme, which means it’s less easily absorbed by the body (and affected by things like coffee, tea, calcium, etc.), whereas heme iron from animal foods is absorbed much more efficiently. So while these foods are amazing, it can be hard to rebuild iron levels with plant iron alone, especially when you’re deficient, so adding a supplement too is often needed! Sharing in case it helps other iron-deficient girlies 💛🥰

this is so real bc I was eating “right” too and still felt off 😅 always tired, bloated, low energy no matter how balanced my meals looked. I thought I was doing everything correctly but nothing actually helped long term. it got so frustrating. then in a women’s group someone mentioned Eat Like a Woman Protocol by Loren Green… 28 lbs down, digestion calm, energy finally steady. honestly worth it, feels like hidden info

Love how you're focusing on absorption and not just intake! Gut health can play such an important role too. Out of curiosity, have you ever looked into oil of oregano as part of your wellness routine to support digestive health?

Iron absorption really is a dark art lol, for anyone that didn’t know anything high in calcium can affect absorption!
