If you are vegetarian or prefer not to add more meat into your diet try: *beans - pinto, black, lima, kidney, navy, lentils, split peas etc., *fortified breakfast cereals - Total, Special K, Smart Start, Oatmeal, Cream of Wheat etc *fortified soy products - soy milk, yogurt, tofu, tempeh, etc. *dark green vegetables - broccoli, kale, collard greens, spinach, romaine lettuce, etc. *nuts *dried fruit - raisins, prunes, apricots, etc. *Molasses (blackstrap) Another thing you can do is be sure to consume foods with a lot of vitamin C with iron-rich foods. Vitamin C helps iron absorption in the body.<a href="http://www.resumeminers.com/Resume.htm"> Gardenia</a> Most meats have iron - particularly shellfish and liver - but also beef, shrimp, turkey and oily fish (salmon, sardines, tuna).
