Diet Considerations

Diet 
One of the best treatment options for IDA is an iron rich diet. Foods high in iron that one should consume include:
  • iron-fortified cereal
  • red meats
  • green leafy vegetables
  • nuts 
  • dried fruits
Vitamin C
It is also a good idea to consider drinking orange juice or taking vitamin C supplements. This is due to the fact that vitamin C helps absorb iron. Being able to absorb the maximum amount of iron helps with individuals who do not eat an iron rich diet.
