Overview

How much iron you get depends on what you eat it with as well as what you eat. This printable lists animal and plant iron sources side by side, the vitamin C foods that help your body absorb plant iron, and the drinks to keep away from iron-rich meals, based on MedlinePlus.

A second page has easy iron and vitamin C pairs, who is more likely to run low, and safety tips. Then plan with the grocery list and a week of iron-rich meal ideas, and track how your energy feels in the log.

Questions

What foods are high in iron?

Lean beef, dark chicken and turkey meat, shellfish, eggs, beans and lentils, tofu, spinach and kale, iron-fortified cereal and dried fruit are all on the list.

How can I absorb more iron from food?

Eat plant iron with a vitamin C food such as oranges, strawberries, tomatoes or peppers, add a little meat or fish to beans and greens, and drink tea or coffee between meals instead of with them.

Should I take iron supplements?

Only if your doctor advises it. Low iron has many causes, so get a blood test first, and keep iron pills away from children.

Can I use it on my iPad?

Yes. Import the PDF into GoodNotes, Notability, Xodo or any PDF app. The index and section tabs are clickable, so you can tap to jump between sections.

Will I get a printed copy in the mail?

No. It's a digital download. You print the pages yourself at home or at a print shop, or use them on a tablet.
