A deficiency of any nutritional element leads to far from the most pleasant consequences, so the diet should always be as balanced as possible.

Iron deficiency is especially dangerous.

It is known that this can lead to a serious disease - anemia. Therefore, it is important to consume food products containing this important element every day.

What to add to your diet

Meat and liver

This is the most popular source of iron, which many use as their main source. Despite the fact that people in most cases cannot refuse to eat such food, these foods cannot be eaten every day.

Meat is consumed twice a week in small portions. Liver is consumed only once a week.

Any legumes

All varieties of legumes contain sufficient amounts of iron. If you consume them on a regular basis, you will not have to worry about developing anemia or other health problems.
