Prune Juice
First on the list is Prune Juice. Just eight ounces of prune juice will give you three milligrams of iron.
Spinach
Second on the list is Spinach. One cup of cooked spinach contains 6.5 milligrams of iron.
Blackstrap molasses
Blackstrap molasses is next coming in at number three on the list. There are seven milligrams of iron in two tablespoons of black strap molasses.
Seafood
Fourth on the list is Seafood. Oysters and other shellfish will give you seven milligrams of iron per 100 grams of seafood.
Beef
Number 5 is Beef. Just 3 ounces of beef is going to give you approximately 2.5 milligrams of iron.
Dark Chocolate
Last but not least and one of my favourites is Dark Chocolate, just three ounces can give you as much as 10 milligrams of iron. Make sure it's a non-toxic dark chocolate that doesn't have heavy metals and preferably organic from a reputable company.
