Here are five iron-rich foods recommended by the organisation. IOL_Lifestyle
Iron deficiency anaemia is the most common nutritional deficiency worldwide and is especially prevalent in women and children – but it can be managed.
The World Health Organization recently took to Twitter and shared a number of dietary tips and food recommendations that can help combat the problem of iron deficiency. The organisation revealed that people should include citrus fruits in their meals as they contain vitamin C which helps absorb the iron one needs. They also revealed that people should avoid having coffee and tea with their meals since they contain some elements that can inhibit the absorption of iron in foods and wait two hours after their main meal to have coffee or tea. There are a number of meats that are rich in iron, such as poultry or fish.
