Plant-Based Iron Sources

August 10, 2022

If you are feeling low on iron or just want to make sure you are getting plenty of iron, the following list contains great plant-based iron sources. While the list is not in any order, my #1 and #2 go-to’s are in fact the dark leafy greens and spirulina & barley grass juice powder. They are amazing sources for highly absorbable iron.

Best Plant-Based Vegan Iron Sources

While coconut water does not have a ton of iron, when you have it a lot like I do, it does add up which is why I included it in the list.

As far as mushrooms for an iron source, know that oyster mushrooms contain about 2x the amount of iron as button mushrooms do.

Even though iron in the right amounts is good for you, Epstein-Barr, shingles, and other pathogens feed on this metal. Almost all cases of anemia are caused by a low-grade viral infection. You should therefore avoid iron supplements that are not plant-based. Increase your iron naturally by eating spinach, barley grass juice powder, parsley, wild blueberries, grapes (black, purple, or red), blackberries, cilantro, burdock root (juiced), potatoes (with skins), kale, sprouts, squash, pumpkin seeds (in small amounts), asparagus, sulfur-free dried apricots, and other fruits, leafy greens, herbs, wild foods, and vegetables with relatively high amounts of iron. EBV, shingles and others are unlikely to consume iron from these sources because fruits, leafy greens, herbs, wild foods, and vegetables contain natural anti-pathogenic properties.
