Source of Iron?

Source of Iron?


Hey, My gf's iron is low and she doesn't want to take iron pills b/c they make her all constipated. She can't stand the smell of liver when it's cooking and won't eat it, so I was just wondering if there was anything else out there that had a higher source of iron for her? The Dr said that she'd have to take 150mg iron pills.

Supplement pills would be the best way to make sure you are getting an adequate supply.

superbri007 brown rice, meat, raisins not bleeding from the vagina stick with meats.....the body can only absorb 10% or less of the iron from raisins or rice

Ceaze stick with meats.....the body can only absorb 10% or less of the iron from raisins or rice The only meat that I knew of that had a lot of iron in it was liver. Other then that, she mostly eats chicken, but I don't know how much iron is in chicken, beef or pork.
