A member asked:
Help please? what is a diet i can lose weight with that is high in iron?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vegetables: Beets and red cabbage are high in iron. Many other vegetables are rich in iron as well - lists are easily found on the internet. Eat mostly vegetables, with small quantities of meat, and healthy fats such as olive oil or coconut oil. Avoid sugar.
