Here’s something most people get wrong about iron:
It’s not how much you EAT.
It’s how much you ABSORB.
You could eat liver every day and still be low on iron — if you’re washing it down with coffee or pairing it with cheese.
That’s why I built the Iron Absorption Protocol — a daily tracker that helps you:
⬆️ BOOST what helps:
→ Iron + Vitamin C combos (beef + bell pepper, lentils + lemon)
→ Warm food + acid (stew + balsamic, salad + ACV)
→ Beta-carotene + iron (carrots + eggs, pumpkin + meat)
🛡️ AVOID what blocks:
→ No coffee/tea within 1hr of iron meals (−60-70% absorption)
→ No dairy with iron-rich food (calcium competes)
→ Properly soak grains/legumes (phytates bind iron)
→ Balance fiber with fat and protein
📋 DAILY AWARENESS:
→ Track your energy levels
→ Space blockers from iron meals
→ Use iron-friendly cooking methods
📊 12 daily checkpoints. Iron Score. Weekly heatmap. Streak tracker.
📤 Share your combos in the community — your meal idea might solve someone else’s fatigue.
