Im looking for foods, mainly fruits and vegetables, and protein foods, that are high in iron. I would prefer to have foods that are lower in calories. Thank you!
Following is a list of foods that are high in iron which provide 8 mg or more of iron per 100 g of the food. Cereals Grains: barley (Bajra), Rice flakes Pulses Beans: Cow pea, Lobia (black-eye beans), Lentils, Soybean Vegetables: Beetroot greens, Mint, Parsley, Turnip greens. Vegetables like broccoli and bok choy are rich in iron. These vegetables are high iron and also high in vitamin C, which increases absorption of their iron content. The presence of vitamin C in these vegetables help absorb iron. Sea vegetables are very high in iron. Refer the high iron food list given below. Spices: Turmeric (Haldi) Fruits: Dried dates, Watermelon, Raisins Fish and Red meats Iron in Animal Sources : Heme Iron Beef Liver, Chicken Liver, Clams, Mussels, Oysters, Pork Liver, Sardines, Shrimp and Turkey are good in iron content. Hope this helps :p
Try using those pant hangers (the wooden ones that snap open and close) and hang them in your bathroom. Then run the shower so the room steams up and close the door. Or, borrow a steamer from someone. You could also bring them to a dry cleaners for them to steam.
Legumes such as lentil are high in Iron, as are green leafy vegetables such as kale.
Vegetables: Beetroot greens, Mint, Parsley.
try using the steam on your iron without the iron touching the fabric
