How To Diagnose Iron Deficiency Anemia:
1. Get tested! Be sure to test before you take iron; it can be toxic if you don't need it!

Get ALL of these tests:
2. CBC, or complete blood count
3. Iron panel
4. Ferritin (this is a storage form of iron).

How should you replace iron if needed?
1. Food - animal sources is the most bioavailable form of iron (we absorb it easily)
2. Food - plant sources include beans, lentils, nuts, seeds, dark green leafy veggies

If you're taking an iron pill, avoid taking it with:
Dairy, beans, spinach, tea, wine and coffee - these foods contain chemicals that actually block the absorption of iron in your body!
