Thank you for the support and comments so far everyone. I was just reading that vegetarians don't have the nutrient deficiencies that people may think they do. I wanted to find out how I might increase my iron intake through vegetables and grains. Then I came across a few articles stating that the foods most vegetarians consume (ie spinach) are high in iron as well as the vitamin C needed for our bodies to absorb non-heme iron (the only iron available in plant foods). In fact, consuming foods like brown rice, beans and lentils, and leafy greens provides the body most of the iron, vitamin C, and calcium any body needs. On a per calorie scale, some experts believe the iron found in plant foods is actually superior to that found in animal foods. For more info and some interesting reading check out http://www.vrg.org/nutrition/iron.htm.
In Beauty and in Love always,
Wishing you good Health

You are a great writer. The way you convey information whether it's about veggies or a love poem is always eloquent, Wyze, and vital. Most of us are lacking iron and while some (me) pop supplements like skittles I have recently come to enjoy eating my nutrients more than just swallowing them. Thank you Wyzdom. I hope you post more soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind words and support, you are very sweet. Supplements are at least a start. That means that you care about your health and are willing to do something about it. I'm glad you started eating your nutrients, as our Mother earth has a lot to offer straight from her fertile ground. Thank you again for your comment and yes I plan on posting more. Peace, <3 and Blessings to you.
