When it comes to Iron Rich Foods, you can hardly do better than clams. Apart from an excellent source of iron clams are also a top source of potassium and Vitamin B12. They are unlikely to be contaminated, and according to the Environmental Defense Fund’s Seafood Selector, the farming of the most common clams in the U.S. (northern quahogs) does little ecological damage.

Fresh clams served with linguine is a great dish, but if you want something quick and easy yet still delicious, try a clam chowder using canned clams! Below you will find a great list of all kinds of Clam Recipes, and over time you will be able to find them all here at Iron Rich Foods:

Early studies on spinach suggested that the oxalates in spinach would act as iron absorption inhibitors.
