I was anemic as a child, and also had to take iron supplements during my pregnancies. Unfortunately, iron supplements and I don't get along very well.
So, I developed a ritual of having liver and onions at least once a month. I happen to like liver and onions, so that's a good thing. My doctors have long advised me to have a little red meat, but I can't digest that very well. Funny how liver doesn't affect me the same way. I love spinach, mollusks, lentils and other iron-rich foods.
