      You maybe right Testify. I never associated beans (10% iron) and shredded wheat (90%) of iron. You may have something because I eat ICE all day long, which is a sure sign of anemia.

      *you guys may not want to hear but...I have very heavy menstrual periods/blood loss, especially while on t-bol*

      Thanks Testify...gotta up my iron.

      Beans are a good source of fiber and protein. You prob just need the extra energy, being you have such bad periods, and your body is just telling you something.."get the extra nutrients."

      Liver helps increase red blood cell count. Plus, it's one of the best sources of heme iron.

      Desiccated liver contain heme iron, one of the most bioavailable forms around. Synthetic or elemental iron can lead to overdosing. Overdosing is far less likely with natural iron. With non-heme iron, you might expect an absorption rate of 1-3%. With heme iron, you could expect 35% absorption or more. Liver tabs can also exert "hematinic activity" the ability of a substance to improve the quality of the blood, including the hemoglobin level and the number of erythrocytes. That's why liver has been called a "blood builder".
