Do You Struggle With Low Iron ?
1. Nutrition to Support Iron & Red Blood Cells
Focus on:
-
Iron-rich foods (even if levels are up, they help maintain balance):
- Grass-fed beef, liver, chicken
- Lentils, black beans, spinach, collard greens
-
Pumpkin seeds, quinoa, tofu
-
Vitamin C – helps your body absorb iron:
- Citrus, bell peppers, strawberries, kiwi
-
Try combining iron-rich meals with something acidic (e.g. lemon on greens)
-
B12 & Folate – supports healthy red blood cell formation:
-
Eggs, fish, dark leafy greens, avocado, beans
-
Magnesium – balances heat response, helps with energy & sleep:
-
Pumpkin seeds, almonds, dark chocolate, leafy greens
2. Herbal Support
Gentle daily tonics (non-constipating, supportive):
- Nettle leaf tea or tincture – rich in iron, B vitamins, minerals
- Yellow dock root – supports liver and iron absorption (use in tincture or capsule)
- Dandelion root – helps the liver process excess iron and keep digestion moving
- Ashwagandha (if you’re feeling run down or overheated) – helps regulate stress and body temperature
- Sarsaparilla (regulate new red blood cells to develop)
3. Movement & Temperature Regulation
- Gentle movement (walks, stretching, light yoga) helps circulate oxygen-rich blood.
-
If you’re getting hot fast:
- Wear breathable cotton layers
- Sip cool herbal teas (peppermint, hibiscus)
-
Avoid heavy caffeine and processed sugar—they spike metabolism too fast
