Anemia...how do I know if I have it?

Posted by Meri-Tuuli on January 31, 2007, at 13:10:17

Okay, I'm fetching the dried apricots as I speak...
I've suddenly realised that I've met some of the criteria for anemia. I don't eat red meat (never have done really) and I'm a 26 year old girl.
Anyone had any personal experiences with anemia?
I know that I once gave blood and before you can give you're tested for anemia. My level was fine and healthy even through I don't eat red meat. (but that was a long time ago!)
Hmmm.
What are good (non-red meat) food sources of iron then?
Dried apricots
lentils
????
guinness? Or is this just an urban myth?
