I want to donate blood but they said i was two points too low to donate. what can i eat to raise my red blood count?

IRON: Eat your dark greens (yum, spinach!), and red meat as easy ways to increase dietary iron. Can also take multivitamin w/iron or a specific supplement--although they can cause constipation. Good luck, need all the donors we can get!
