Marie is 19 years old and has iron-deficiency anemia. She constantly feels fatigued, has headaches, and feels cold most of the time. Marie is within her ideal body weight range and likes to be physically active. She is willing to do whatever it takes to make herself feel better. Marie doesn’t mind including animal products in her diet, but has heard that these foods actually decrease iron absorption. As a result, Marie has identified plant foods that are high in iron and started including them in her diet. At every meal, Marie does not put sugar in her tea because she knows it is not nutrient dense. In addition, when Marie cooks, she uses nonstick stainless steel pans so she doesn’t have to use a lot of fat in her food preparation. Marie usually has a glass of orange juice in between her meals to increase her vitamin C intake and makes sure to take a calcium supplement with her dinner meal. As you can see, Marie is trying to be healthy and decrease the effects of her iron-deficiency anemia. However, there are many things Marie could do to better utilize the iron she does consume. What would you recommend for Marie?
