<< how about a discussion of iron rich foods?

these would be more bioavailable/absorbable/utilized by mom than a vitamin
w/iron, yes or no?

ie: dark green leafy veggies, meat, .......what other foods are iron
rich?....... >>

I never suggest iron pills to mothers as they often cause digestive problems.
I find that either liquid chlorophyll or a liquid iron tonic such as Floridex
avoids these problems and is more readily absorbed. Also, I personally use
iron cookware and suggest it to mothers.
