I have trouble with my iron too unfortunately. I try and eat iron-fortified products whenever possible, for example, I eat sandwiches for lunch made on wraps that are iron fortified, and for breakfast I have quaker oatmeal that is also fortified with iron. And I try and eat a lot of fish and chicken which has some iron in it. It's hard if you don't eat red meat since that is the best source, iron from grains and vegetables isn't absorbed as well. If you continue to have trouble you may need to consider an iron supplement, I have to take one because it seems without red meat my body just won't maintain iron. Plus, if you're female and having regular periods that can make it difficult as well.

Good luck!
