The best healthy diet dishes for the blood

The common dietary iron which is in form of ferric salts (nonheme iron) comes from vegetable, fruit, and egg. However, it is difficult to absorb this substance in the intestine. The iron found in meat and fish, known as heme iron is more easily absorbed.

Many research have shown that vitamin C, most especially the one from lemon juice can double or triple the rate of absorption of nonheme iron in the intestine. Many cases of anemia are caused by a lack of iron, vitamin B12, and folic acid. These three nutrients are what the body needs to produce red blood cells. The present recommendation is that each meal should contain 25 mg of vitamin C because of its benefit in aiding the absorption of iron. This amount of vitamin C is provided by half a lemon. The kind of iron found in meat is not so much essential to blood formation. Blood develop from plant-based foods is of a better quality than that from foods of animal origin.

Anemia
