  5. Enjoy small portions of lean red meat – the darker the meat, the more iron it has (eat beef or lamb). Go for the dark meat of chicken – it has double the amount of iron. Enjoy liver occasionally if you’re not pregnant or planning a pregnancy (see vitamin A). Boost your intake Deborah Ferrari

  6. Choose fortified cereals, – look for those with the most iron. Have baked beans on toast for lunch – choose tins that are lower in sugar and salt. Eating out? Order mussels, cockles, clams, crayfish or brown crabmeat – all contain iron. Boost your intake Deborah Ferrari

  7. Add a handful of cashew nuts to stir-fries – they contain the most iron of all nuts. Or sprinkle with iron-rich sesame seeds. Vitamin C helps the body to absorb iron from non-meat foods, so team foods rich in this vitamin with iron-rich foods. Good choices include citrus fruits and juices, berries and tomatoes.
