hemoglobin food items - #28365

Aditya

I am really confused about my hemoglobin levels and what I should eat. Last month, I did a blood test and found out my hemoglobin was super low, around 10 g/dL, which really freaked me out! I have been feeling really tired, dizzy sometimes, and my skin has this pale look that makes me really self conscious. My doc mentioned I need to increase my hemoglobin, and I’d like to know what kind of hemoglobin food items I can add to my diet? I heard that spinach and lentils are good but I'm not sure how to prepare them or if there are other hemoglobin food items I should consider. I’m also worried about whether I should eat these food items throughout the day or focus on one meal? I mean, do I need iron supplements too or can I boost my hemoglobin just by changing my diet? My mom keeps telling me that red meat is a great hemoglobin food item, and she’s always pushing for me to eat more, but I'm not a huge fan of it. I really just want to feel energetic again and not have to worry about my hemoglobin constantly. Can someone pls help with recommendations and tips? Thanks!
