hb level increase food - #28533
I am really worried about my hb level increase food choices lately. Last month, during a routine check-up, my doctor said my hemoglobin was low, like a 10.5 when it should be around 12 or higher. I’ve been feeling extra tired, and the whole thing freaked me out, you know? I read somewhere that certain foods could help with hb level increase, and I’ve tried adding more iron-rich stuff like spinach and lentils to my diet. But I'm not sure if that’s enough. Also, I’ve heard that vitamin C helps absorb iron better but I’m not exactly sure how much I should be having. I tried eating oranges with my meals, but if i forget or if it doesn't happen, I worry I’m missing out on helping my hb level increase. I’ve looked up other hb level increase food too, like red meat and beans, but I don’t eat them every day cause well, they can be heavy on the stomach sometimes; also, I’ve been sticking mostly to chicken. Have any of you experienced this low hb thing? What strategy did you use to get your levels up? Like, what worked? I’m honestly kinda lost, and just want to feel better and energized again without just taking pills. Any suggestions would help, please!
