Tips to healthy bloody and body
- The first step when an individual appears to be low in iron is to ensure an adequate intake of lean red meat, and fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C
- Our body can absorb iron found in meats much more easily than iron found in plants. But if you eat a serving of meat with a serving of vegetables together, your body will absorb more iron than if you ate mean alone.
- Eat a well-balanced diet that includes good sources of iron (liver, meat, peas, beans, whole grain), vitamin B12 (foods of animal origin only, including meats, liver and kidney, milk, cheese, fish, shell fish and eggs) and folate.
- Vitamin C can improve the absorption of iron in your diet. Decrease your consumption of caffeine products an tea as they can decrease the absorption of iron
- Tea should be drunk between meals rather than with meals to optimize iron absorption
- Spinach – Energy Catalyst. It is an excellent source of iron – an integral component of haemoglobin, which transports oxygen from your lungs to every body cell. It is also a key enzyme system for energy production and metabolism.
- Corns – Brain Booster. It is rich in thiamine, a compound essential for brain functions to prevent age-related impairment like Alzheimer’s disease.
- Soy – Heart Helper. The omega-3 fatty acid in soy lowers blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and increase heart function by providing greater variability between beats, reducing the risk of getting a heart attack
