Supercharge your Plant-Based Lifestyle with Iron Friendly Foods

Naturally Healthy

Did you know iron deficiency is the most common mineral deficiency globally, affecting 1.6 billion people?
That’s a heck of a lot of people!
Unfortunately, people on a plant-based diet and women of reproductive age are among the most at risk of being iron deficient (I know what you’re thinking – haven’t we endured enough?).
Whether you’re a lifelong vegan, a flexible vegetarian, or simply immersing your toes in plant-based waters, it’s essential to supercharge your diet with iron friendly foods.
If you’re still not convinced that iron is for you, you may be surprised to know iron plays an essential role in the body.

So, where can you get iron? Today on the blog I'm exploring a range of plant based iron friendly foods and sharing recipes so you can use them in your meals.

The damning view of Coroner Janet Anderson is revealed in a long-awaited 132-page report into one of New Zealand’s most shocking child-killings - the 2021 death of Malachi at the hands of his ‘caregiver’, Michaela Barriball.
