My iron levels dropped to 6.9 due to fibroids, been taking iron supps with fruit juice(cold pressed) and I hv a lot of improvements, I can now hv a walk in the park and go upstairs with no loosing my breath
Hi trizah, mine is at 6.5 , I have fibroids started on feso4. You have brightened my day I thought I was solo so greatful to Dr Joe for this eye opener information.
My 86 yr old mother was anemic and took the Covid vaccine and now her iron dropped from 11 to 7.9 and dropping drastically. I’m researching this and many people are experiencing this as well as us having a National blood shortage due to iron poor blood now being donated from vaccinated individuals. Thank you for your video and information. God bless everyone as we LOVE ONE a ANOTHER ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you Dr. for explaining that you do not want to consume your high Calcium foods together with your High iron foods. I grew up in Israel because my father worked there. Everyone back in the 1970's eat Kosher . Even if they did not have a Kosher kitchen set up in their tiny apartment the majority of people just never combined any Dairy ( High Calcium ) with any Meat ( High Iron) . Even I followed the guidelines of eating Dairy : Yogurt with honey or fruit and granola . Cheese with eggs in an omlet or cheese sandwich ( Rye bread ) with butter or cream cheese sandwich with red peppers or cucumber For Meat dishes spices like cumin and tumeric were used to slow cook meats and tomatoes and Articokes ( when in season ) were thrown whole on top of the stewing meat. fresh salads of diced tomatoes and cucumbers dressed with fresh lemon juice and Olive oil or red peppers seared over the gas stove flame and peeled and dressed with the same ( Vitamin C ) lemon juice and olive oil were always served with the meat dish. So the lemon juice based salads helped absorb the Iron with the beef and lamb stews. Everyone was very slim back in the 1970s !!! No one ate Pork except the American tourists. No one back then would think of eating a Cheese Burger ! No one ate bacon - though your could buy it. Everything back then was made from scratch. The dairy and eggs were of a high quality. I do not feel that is the case today in Israel as too many packaged foods have flooded all stores internationally. I am going back to eating th Kosher style of Not Combining Meat with Dairy as this is the biggigest mistake I made when returning to the Standard American Diet : SAD. Thank you for explaining how Iron absorption really works. God Bless you.
@@drjoetvMD. Hello Dr Joe thanks for the awesome video. I was watching this video because my sister seems to have iron deficiency and anemia her main symptom is fatigue and light headed ness. She started eating iron rich foods such as beef spinach and a certain type of grain. She said she didn't feel any less fatigued after eating the iron rich foods for roughly a month and since then she started taking iron tablets. she says she has felt way less fatigued since she started taking iron tablets. Do you know the reason for the iron rich foods seemingly having no affect but the iron tablets seeming to work? And despite that would still recommend she try the remedies in thi# video or anything else?Thanks.
@@gabrielrae7647 The iron present in plant foods is non-heme iron which is harder to absorb, hence you need the iron absorption boosters to help move the needle. Failing that she will have to source the iron from red meat. The iron in meat is heme iron. It's more readily available for absorption. In the meantime though, there is nothing wrong with using iron supplements but they do constipate folks though as a side effect
Cut okras in small pieces boil in salted water add corn meal take pot off the heat stir the corn meal and okras try to get rid of the lumps you can add more boiling water if needed put pot back on heat and continue to stir (cook) can eat with fish gravy or whatever you wish
My grand mother told me to use cast iron vessels to increase iron. Every Indian house had it in the kitchen 50 years ago. Sadly, it is replaced with non-stick item now !!!
Yes the iron roti tawa and coper, iron and clay vessels were so beneficial. Unfortunately since we've moved onto modern materials thinking that they make our life easier our health has actually started to suffer.
Good Morning Doctor. Recently I was diagnosed with with low hemoglobin levels. This video of food combinations explained in detail with demo was extremely beneficial for me. Thank you so much.
Thank you for these tips. Prior to my son during college, I used to donate plasma, and my iron used to dip low occasionally. Now, after my son, 2 years, my iron stays low. And yesterday & today, i started having both dizziness, lightheadedness, & nausea symptoms. My first thought was both dehydration & anemia. So I had to stay home & and try to rest & replenish fluids and my iron through healthy soup & fruit. Your advice will help a lot.🙏
Thank You Dr Joe! I have seen many videos on this topic and most of them talk about consuming non-veg. This is the first one that guides about increasing the bioavailability of nutrients by equipping people with the correct knowledge. You are amazing and I am just so very thankful to you for this video for spreading the correct knowledge.
Hi Dr. Joe, I want to thank you for your videos, I find them extremely informative and helpful. I have a request for you to do a video on Foods that causes inflammation and foods that reduces inflammation.
Thank you Dr Joe loved your video,my mum has really low deficiency in iron ,she takes. Iron tablets,iron injections and blood transfusion regularly,this video given me some insight many thanks 🙏🏽 from the UK ❤️
I've been told I need to do iron transfusion due to low iron! My legs and foot have been aching, chest pains , a cough that sometime is so debilitating it's awful! I truly don't think the iron supplements are absorbing and not working and the iron transfusion is scary because you just don't know who it's coming from! So I'll be trying this doctor's advice and be in the kitchen preparing all these meal ideas he's suggested! Great video!
This video is golden, I got value, even though I do these recipes at home, I shared it with families to help them get value from this awesome video. Congratulations you earned a new friend 👍
I liked this video because Dr Joe, unlike so many US video makers, comes to the point and talks moderately shortly, to impart the information we need, unlike so many others, who go on and on and on, until I simply lose patience and go to the next video. "Brevity is the soul of wit!" Thank you, Dr Joe.
Thank you. Your presentation was straightforward and easy to understand. I appreciate your explanation of what to avoid and what to consume with iron rich food in order to enhance absorption.
FANTASTIC! I'VE ALWAYS ASKED WHAT EXACTLY IS TO EAT IF TO IMPROVE BODY IRON. PEOPLE ALWAYS HAVE WHAT NOT TO EAT. AM GLAD TO KNOW THAT YOU CAN EAT SOMETING WELL IN ORDER OFCOMBINATION. THANKS DR JOE.
By the way, have you got yourself a copy of my book yet? No pressure to get it but it should help you. Here is a link for you www.amazon.com/Your-High-Blood-Pressure-Days/dp/1802275584/

@@tabithahudson4706 it took me years to go from anemic to "low normal" level.Even though i supplemented everyday and took it with vit Cit was a combinationproduct, highly absorbable.And still... why is that?If it goes through digestion there will be only max. 5% absorbed.
Many people have the notion that if the juices are made at home then they are natural - and therefore good. I have to keep telling them that if they are pre-diabetic they could slide into diabetes due to the high sugar spikes.
Looking forward to boosting my iron level up with his video. It popped up for a reason because I've been iron deficient now for a year for the first time in my life. Was taking iron pills but stopped due to constipation. I will now began again with the help of this video. Thank you Dr.
I fall because of vertigo. I was told iron helps that. And I get constipated too. Then it feels like get buggy butt syndrome. Or today I did as a result. Like delirium. Like my eyeballies are marbles spinning like coins. Water with some vinegar helped.
Hello Dr Joe. I appreciate you showing us good combinations. I eat carrots nearly every day. I like to eat raw carrot sticks, sometimes I dip them in soup.

they have zinc coating . remove it by using steel wool scraper and then wash and oil the surface with edible oil before use/store after use get b12 supplement and eat green leafy veggies or take folate as supplement to boost iron in the body also potassium (upto 4700 mg ) mg (upto 340 mg) as supplement with sufficient sunlight daily or take vit D3 iron supplements by themselves do not help much
every tip to heal anemia through specified whole food combining extremely helpful , DOable, affordable , non-intimidating / overwhelming - friendly delivery of serious info gives me feeling of empowerment & happiness - thank you Dr . Joe
Hello dear Doctor Joe Thank you so much for your help and advice, i do appreciate your job. I wish you peace and happness under the sky of prosperity. All the best. Take care and have a good time. Your Student from Algeria.
Thanks for sharing this. I'm adding all of those to my list!!! I've had low iron for 2 years now(I've only known for 2), it dropped to barely above anaemic. I'm desperately trying to increase it as I feel it effects my general health and fitness. Especially my vo2max.
I don't take iron sulphates, i don't do metal. I don't use lemons, i use burdock, yellow dock, real plant base akaline iron. I have never felt better. I sleep well, i wake up not stiff, i wake up alive. I also use minerals.
Thank you Dr. Joe 👍 I have low iron at 6 and supplement constipate me so will try yours tips ! Did not know about coffe 😳👍 Sorry to ask here, but my husband has really bad psoriasis, you have a video on that ? And where are you located. Thanks from bottom of my heart for helping peoples 🙏
No, I don't have a video on psoriasis. For a start, your husband should avoid dairy of all types - one tip for him. I'm actually located a little bit of a distance from you. The UK. Sorry about that
Hello, I agree with all the plant based suggestions . Shell fish are unclean and also high in contaminates . I wouldn’t recommend . Everything else was A+++😊
Thank you! My iron, ferritin and hemoglobin levels are very low due to low iron levels. I am scheduled for more infusions but they don't seem to last more than a few months. I am going to be using this information moving forward in my diet, and hopefully the weakness and dizziness can be minimized.
Has your doctor made any attempt to find out why your iron level is consistently low? I know someone who had low iron levels, low enough to require regular iron infusions, that turned out to be caused by low grade internal bleeding that was the result of gluten intolerance. Once this person went gluten free, they had no more problems with low iron.
@@jennyfreemantle1925 Beyond standard testing, no. They found I do have a hiatal hernia but I also have high pulmonary BP so they are afraid to proceed with surgery. Numerous tests have found no internal bleeding. I asked about an h. pylori infection but they won't even consider it. I will ask about gluten intolerance, I was not aware that could be an issue, thank you!
Thank you Dr Joe This video is so helpful to me since my iron been low for a long time now but I will try your remedies...you are like a breath of frezh air
This video helps a lot😢. I've been diagnosed with severe anaemia, I've been given pills to supplement this condition along with vitamin c but i also wanted to do my part and eat right😢
As usual...this is profound Dr Joe👍. I have moderate anaemia and i depend on iron supplements. So this presentation speaks to me...very valuable informatiom, thank you.
He should make merch with “how about??” Cuz I’m mind blown 🤯 at these food pairings and I look forward to eliminating my anemia once and for all. Too many years of the struggle linked to the female cycles.
Thank you, Veronica. I'm also thinking you are referring to heavy menstrual loss monthly. If that's the case, then you need to fix that too please. I talk about turning that faucet off. You have to if you want to win because it would appear you have been suffering a good number of years
I had two different nurses and one doctor insist that orange juice is the best way to get vitamin c with high iron foods. When I asked if there was a lower carbohydrate way to get vitamin c they all looked at me like I was crazy. No wonder everybody is diabetic nowadays. One doctor I saw recently suggested that it wouldn't make a difference if I give up blood donations until I get my ferritin back up. Thank you for your informative video Dr. Joe
A lot of my colleagues are fairly ignorant about nutrition, so your story doesn't surprise me one bit, Judy. The ignorance out there is staggering and I am not being disrespectful, just stating the facts. But it's not their fault though, it's our training in medical school that is to blame.
Some people cannot assimilate iron from taking supplements. I tried everything and gave up because iron supplements was causing constipation. What worked for me is brewer’s yeast. My anemia is gone since I take brewer’s yeast but not just anemia but also weakness in my joints, brain fog, fatigue.
I saw one of Yr vids about 2 year's ago, I found it very helpful along with this one so I'm a new subscriber. Thanks for sharing Yr great work with us Brother. All the very best.
Thank you Dr. Joe for all your wonderful teaching. I love greens like amaranth and kale etc. I always eat them together with my beans and other iron rich foods. Do you think the calcium in the green inhibits the absorption of iron. My iron levels are always low to the point that I had to have iron infusion done. Now the doctor is saying I need another one. The second question is if one implements the points you have stated how quickly does it take for the iron to go up to normal levels?
It's difficult to say how quickly you can get your iron levels up as everyone is different and absorption issues play a big part in all of this even with oral supplements. Iron replenishment is a slow process generally speaking. You just can't rush it unfortunately. The quickest route is the iron infusion as it bypasses absorption barrier. The other thing you need to look into is why do your iron levels keep dropping perpetually? Apart from dietary issues which of course is tied to absorption, there could be other reasons. For instance, women having heavy periods monthly is an often ignored cause. Something like that needs to be sorted out too
The same principles apply to ferritin, Jane. Ferritin is simply the storage form of Iron in the body. Whatever you do to restore Iron levels will restore ferritin as well
Hello doctor Thankyou so much for this video 🙏 very useful information and I have a question What is different between iron level and ferritin level? Because my overall iron level is okay but ferritin level is too low
Ferritin refers the storage level of iron in your body (how good your iron stores are) and iron level refers to how much iron you have in your red blood cells
Dr. Joe. Thank you so much for the video. PLEASE could you recommend a recipe book/advice on ingredients that you would endorse, in line with your video ? I'm from the UK. ?
@@dinydgeraldine3254 Diny, I am not a big fan of supplements with combined nutrients. Prefer stand-alone nutrient supplements. If combined, it shouldn't be more than 2 nutrients. 27mg of iron should be fine as some of that iron may not be absorbed and you should get some iron from your foods too
@@dinydgeraldine3254 By the way, I just realized you have calcium in that preparation. Like I said in the video, calcium blocks iron absorption. So the iron in that supplement is probably not getting absorbed. It underscores my point about combination supplements. I will dump that supplement if you ask me
Thank you so much dr Joe,I have to daughters and a friend with iron problem,I'm grateful for this video just on time when I need it...I'm sharing it to them ...
Thank you dr. Very well said and very well combined the food combinations cuz you don't think about that when you taking supplements or combinations of food❤😊

also potassium (upto 4700 mg ) mg (upto 340 mg) as supplement with
sufficient sunlight daily or take vit D3
iron supplements by themselves do not help much

You're welcome
Thanks for sharing this. I'm adding all of those to my list!!!
I've had low iron for 2 years now(I've only known for 2), it dropped to barely above anaemic. I'm desperately trying to increase it as I feel it effects my general health and fitness. Especially my vo2max.
You're welcome
I don't take iron sulphates, i don't do metal. I don't use lemons, i use burdock, yellow dock, real plant base akaline iron. I have never felt better. I sleep well, i wake up not stiff, i wake up alive. I also use minerals.
Thank you
Thank you Dr. Joe 👍
I have low iron at 6 and supplement constipate me so will try yours tips ! Did not know about coffe 😳👍
Sorry to ask here, but my husband has really bad psoriasis, you have a video on that ?
And where are you located.
Thanks from bottom of my heart for helping peoples 🙏
No, I don't have a video on psoriasis. For a start, your husband should avoid dairy of all types - one tip for him. I'm actually located a little bit of a distance from you. The UK. Sorry about that
@@drjoetvMD Thanks again 👍
Hello, I agree with all the plant based suggestions . Shell fish are unclean and also high in contaminates . I wouldn’t recommend .
Everything else was A+++😊
Thank you, Rachelle
Thank you for sharing with us Doctor Joe I’ll definitely try this out 👍🏾
You're welcome
Thank you! My iron, ferritin and hemoglobin levels are very low due to low iron levels. I am scheduled for more infusions but they don't seem to last more than a few months. I am going to be using this information moving forward in my diet, and hopefully the weakness and dizziness can be minimized.
You're welcome
Has your doctor made any attempt to find out why your iron level is consistently low? I know someone who had low iron levels, low enough to require regular iron infusions, that turned out to be caused by low grade internal bleeding that was the result of gluten intolerance. Once this person went gluten free, they had no more problems with low iron.
@@jennyfreemantle1925 Beyond standard testing, no. They found I do have a hiatal hernia but I also have high pulmonary BP so they are afraid to proceed with surgery. Numerous tests have found no internal bleeding. I asked about an h. pylori infection but they won't even consider it. I will ask about gluten intolerance, I was not aware that could be an issue, thank you!
Great Job Young Man!!!!!!
Thank you
An enlightening tutorial, Dr. Joe. I keep most of those combinations, now to put them together. 👍😊🌴
Good idea
Thank you for the practical tips using everyday food 😃

This video helps a lot😢. I've been diagnosed with severe anaemia, I've been given pills to supplement this condition along with vitamin c but i also wanted to do my part and eat right😢
And yes, you should do that too
As usual...this is profound Dr Joe👍. I have moderate anaemia and i depend on iron supplements. So this presentation speaks to me...very valuable informatiom, thank you.
You're welcome, Bernadene
I was prescribed iron tablets and it prolonged my period so now i will focus on food@drjoetvMD
Thank you so much, really appreciate being able to learn and realise how I can help my family and my own diet!!!
Most welcome
i can’t live with out white beans it all over my house. combining with guinness..Thanks again Dr Joe🌹
You're welcome, Riziki
He should make merch with “how about??” Cuz I’m mind blown 🤯 at these food pairings and I look forward to eliminating my anemia once and for all. Too many years of the struggle linked to the female cycles.
Thank you, Veronica. I'm also thinking you are referring to heavy menstrual loss monthly. If that's the case, then you need to fix that too please. I talk about turning that faucet off. You have to if you want to win because it would appear you have been suffering a good number of years
Thank you very much; this will be very helpful for my family.
Glad to hear that, Larry
Excellent video with practical suggesstions 👍
Thank you
Fresh squeezed juices my favorite.. I also do cold press juicing fruits n veggies 😋
Thanks
Excellent presentation. Good to know combinations that helps
Thank you
This was so helpful! I appreciate the practicality of the food combination examples. Easy to execute immediately. Thank you so much.
You're welcome
I had two different nurses and one doctor insist that orange juice is the best way to get vitamin c with high iron foods. When I asked if there was a lower carbohydrate way to get vitamin c they all looked at me like I was crazy. No wonder everybody is diabetic nowadays. One doctor I saw recently suggested that it wouldn't make a difference if I give up blood donations until I get my ferritin back up. Thank you for your informative video Dr. Joe
A lot of my colleagues are fairly ignorant about nutrition, so your story doesn't surprise me one bit, Judy. The ignorance out there is staggering and I am not being disrespectful, just stating the facts. But it's not their fault though, it's our training in medical school that is to blame.
Thanks, was suffering severe anemia. This is educating and uplifting. Tools to help me not get back in that unpleasant position again.
Awesome. Glad to be of help, Jane
Some people cannot assimilate iron from taking supplements. I tried everything and gave up because iron supplements was causing constipation.
What worked for me is brewer’s yeast. My anemia is gone since I take brewer’s yeast but not just anemia but also weakness in my joints, brain fog, fatigue.
@@veronical3135 I didn’t knew that joint pain, brain fog can also be caused because of anemia. I have all this symptoms and I am anemic
how do you use brewer yeast?
This is gold! Thank you Doc! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Most welcome
Thanks so much Dr Joe. Very helpful and informative.
You're welcome
I saw one of Yr vids about 2 year's ago, I found it very helpful along with this one so I'm a new subscriber. Thanks for sharing Yr great work with us Brother. All the very best.
My pleasure, Eileen
Thank you Dr. Joe for all your wonderful teaching. I love greens like amaranth and kale etc. I always eat them together with my beans and other iron rich foods. Do you think the calcium in the green inhibits the absorption of iron. My iron levels are always low to the point that I had to have iron infusion done. Now the doctor is saying I need another one. The second question is if one implements the points you have stated how quickly does it take for the iron to go up to normal levels?
It's difficult to say how quickly you can get your iron levels up as everyone is different and absorption issues play a big part in all of this even with oral supplements. Iron replenishment is a slow process generally speaking. You just can't rush it unfortunately. The quickest route is the iron infusion as it bypasses absorption barrier. The other thing you need to look into is why do your iron levels keep dropping perpetually? Apart from dietary issues which of course is tied to absorption, there could be other reasons. For instance, women having heavy periods monthly is an often ignored cause. Something like that needs to be sorted out too
This should be discussed and talked about with women especially by our primary care.,
True
Thank you Doc. Very helpful for me and my anemic body
Most welcome!
Excellent Dr. Joe very beneficial video thank you Sir!
You're welcome
Great video. What about a video on low ferritin?
The same principles apply to ferritin, Jane. Ferritin is simply the storage form of Iron in the body. Whatever you do to restore Iron levels will restore ferritin as well
great information, I didn't know about the bata carotenoid.
Everyday is a school day as they say
Hello doctor Thankyou so much for this video 🙏 very useful information
and I have a question
What is different between iron level and ferritin level? Because my overall iron level is okay but ferritin level is too low
Ferritin refers the storage level of iron in your body (how good your iron stores are) and iron level refers to how much iron you have in your red blood cells
Thank you Dr Joe - crystal clear and easy to follow and understand.. thank you so much and God bless you richly
You're welcome
You are a life saver. I am glad I found your channel
Thank you
Dr. Joe. Thank you so much for the video. PLEASE could you recommend a recipe book/advice on ingredients that you would endorse, in line with your video ? I'm from the UK. ?
I cannot think of a book on this subject that I can reliably endorse and recommend to you. Sorry
Thank you Doctor Joe,very informative,I learn something new
You're welcome, Elvina
Very informative. Wished I had seen this two years ago. ❤
Thank you
good morning Dr Joe . Thank you for sharing 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
You're welcome, Bertine
Thank you so much for the lesson
You're welcome
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽❤️tons of information in just one video: thank you Dr Joe!
Please Dr Joe! What do you think about a supplement that has: iron-27mg, calcium-400mg and vitamin C 120mg? Thanks!
You're welcome, Diny
@@dinydgeraldine3254 Diny, I am not a big fan of supplements with combined nutrients. Prefer stand-alone nutrient supplements. If combined, it shouldn't be more than 2 nutrients. 27mg of iron should be fine as some of that iron may not be absorbed and you should get some iron from your foods too
@@drjoetvMD Really! thank you Dr Joe.
@@dinydgeraldine3254 By the way, I just realized you have calcium in that preparation. Like I said in the video, calcium blocks iron absorption. So the iron in that supplement is probably not getting absorbed. It underscores my point about combination supplements. I will dump that supplement if you ask me
Great info. If deficient in B1, B9 or B12, that can also cause low ferritin or iron deficiency anemia.
Thank you for your contribution
Thanks Dr Joe Gods blessings I learned a lot of how to incorporate my foods
You're welcome, Veronica
Awesome! Thank you Dr. Joe. Whenever you always feeling sleepy is that your iron is low?
That could be due to all sorts of reasons not necessarily because of low iron
Thank you so much dr Joe,I have to daughters and a friend with iron problem,I'm grateful for this video just on time when I need it...I'm sharing it to them ...
