Do modify life style like this - 1)Take Iron-rich foods include meats, beans, lentils, iron-fortified cereals, dark green leafy vegetables, and dried fruit. 2)Take folic acid, which can be found in citrus fruits and juices, bananas, dark green leafy vegetables, legumes, and fortified breads, cereals and pasta. 3)Take Vitamin B-12 and this vitamin is found naturally in meat and dairy products. It's also added to some cereals and soy products, such as soy milk. 4)Take Foods containing vitamin C such as citrus fruits, melons and berries that help increase iron absorption. Hope that helps
