Spinach is one of the best sources of iron

My Grandma believed in 'Geritol' liquid form, health food section of WalMart.
Don't forget beans,meat & always use Cast iron to cook with- adds iron to the food. Careful not to 'over-do'. Just as dangerous as not having 'enough' iron.

Eggs provide iron. Maybe you could fix some hard boiled eggs just for you.
