You obtain iron from vegetables. Foods such as beans, whole grains, spinach, and dried fruits have a significant amount of iron.
Red meat contains a significant amounts of iron. If fat is a reason that you do not eat red meat, try eating extra lean meat. Liver is an excellent source of iron.
Eat a lot of iron rich cereal. Many cereals are fortified with iron. Check the food label on the box and look for iron under the daily values.
You should also avoid drinking tea with your meals that are high in iron. Tea contains tannin that could inhibit the absorption of iron.
