Chicken liver salad
We get trapped in our fatigue, we unload it on our doctor who does not necessarily understand your hell. Yet close to a billion individuals are deficient in iron and drag as if they had irons on their feet... It is sometimes a real arm wrestling to obtain a blood test with the measurement of not only ferritin but also copper.
This micronutrient is often deficient and without it, it is complicated for our body to well assimilate the iron from food or other supplements. Furthermore, in our society of stressed people, the consumption of drinks rich in caffeine and theine continues to increase and these molecules inhibit the absorption of iron.
Different foods are rich in iron and are strongly recommended, these are particularly quality red meat, seafood, legumes and eggs. Without wanting to dampen the atmosphere, it's not so easy to properly assimilate iron; for this, foods rich in vitamin C, in copper are essential, but also fermented foods rich in probiotics.
The problem is that athletes are not big consumers of vegetables and fruits which are rich in vitamin C, nor of whole grains or other foods rich in copper and in good bacteria that we also find in fructooligosaccharides.
So to gain in fervor, here is a simple and effective dish without having to work too hard in the kitchen.
Ingredients
- poultry liver (iron and copper)
- kale as a base salad (vitamin C)
- wakame (copper, iron and vitamin C)
- a handful of walnuts (copper and iron)
- a handful of sesame seeds (iron and copper)
- a small bunch of asparagus (vitamin C and iron)
- dressing: cacao vinegar (copper and iron) and pink pepper (copper and iron)
Simply a stratospheric salad
If increasing your iron through diet is not enough, there is supplementation and there I immediately think of an algae. It is spirulina, it is certainly the best solution for those deficient in iron, 5 g per day often do the trick.
