What Are the Best Iron-Rich Foods in Ayurveda for Boosting Low Hemoglobin? - #14879
I recently got a blood test, and my doctor told me that my hemoglobin is lower than normal. I’ve been feeling tired all the time, sometimes getting dizzy when I stand up too quickly. My skin looks dull, and I even noticed more hair falling out than usual. The doctor suggested taking iron supplements, but they upset my stomach, so I want to focus on getting more iron-rich foods naturally instead. I know that foods like spinach and lentils are high in iron, but I read somewhere that not all iron-rich foods are easily absorbed by the body. Also, I’ve heard that Ayurveda has specific recommendations for increasing iron levels naturally without side effects. What are the best iron-rich foods according to Ayurveda? Are there any herbal remedies or special preparation methods that can improve iron absorption? I also want to know if certain foods interfere with iron absorption. For example, does drinking tea or coffee reduce iron intake? Should I be eating more vitamin C-rich foods to help with absorption? If anyone has successfully improved their iron levels using Ayurvedic methods, please share what worked best.
