A member asked:

Which type of food/drink can i have to bring up my iron level?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Supplemental iron: How do you know that you have low iron? If you are anemic, you should be evaluated for the cause. Over the counter iron supplements are the easiest way to increase body content of iron, but i would not recommend self treatment without evaluation by your doctor.
