Has the body turned pale due to lack of blood? These 5 super food combinations will increase hemoglobin like a rocket as told by the doctor

News India Live, Digital Desk: Due to busy life and poor eating habits, today a large number of people in the country, especially women, are becoming victims of anemia (anemia). When hemoglobin decreases, symptoms like weakness, fatigue, shortness of breath and loss of facial glow start appearing in the body. Often people depend only on medicines to increase iron, but health experts and doctors believe that if the right food combination is adopted, then iron-like strength and abundant blood can come back in the body.

Iron is incomplete without Vitamin C

According to doctors, just eating iron-rich food is not enough. Our body is not able to absorb iron properly unless it is supported by Vitamin C. Therefore, whenever you eat things containing iron, consume citrus fruits or lemon with it. This combination is the most effective way to rapidly increase the hemoglobin level in your body.

These 5 combinations will do wonders

Spinach & Lemon: Spinach is a treasure trove of iron, but eating it raw or without Vitamin C does not provide full benefits. Squeeze lemon juice over spinach vegetable or soup, this will help the body absorb the iron immediately.

Dates & Roasted Gram: This combination is a powerhouse for increasing hemoglobin. Eating a handful of roasted gram and 2-3 dates every morning not only increases blood but also keeps the energy level high.

Pomegranate & Beetroot Salad: Both beetroot and pomegranate are helpful in the formation of red blood cells (RBC). By eating these together in the form of salad, the body gets the necessary folate and iron.

Jaggery & Peanuts: This combination, which has been in use since ancient times, is still the best. Jaggery is rich in iron and peanuts are a source of protein. A small piece of it after meals is a panacea for removing anemia.

Lentils & Amla: Pulses are the main source of iron in the Indian plate. While eating pulses, include Amla pickle or chutney with it. Vitamin C present in Amla helps in mixing the iron of pulses in the blood.

Keep distance from these things

If you want to increase hemoglobin, do not make the mistake of drinking tea or coffee immediately after eating. The tannin present in tea prevents the absorption of iron. Try not to consume caffeine for at least an hour after taking an iron rich diet. Also, do not take calcium-rich foods (such as milk) and iron together, as they can reduce the effect of each other.

Why is this important for women?

Iron consumption increases in women during periods, pregnancy and menopause. Doctors recommend that after the age of 30, women should compulsorily include these 5 combinations in their diet so that diseases like osteoporosis and anemia can be avoided in future.
