At the Blood Center , a fingerstick Blood count determination (sometimes called iron level) is used as a screening test to qualify you for Blood donation.

6 A minimum acceptable result in this test is set in order to avoid temporarily lowering your Blood count through Blood donation to below normal levels. If your Blood count was below this minimum acceptable level for Blood donors today, you may wish to consider increased dietary iron intake in order to stimulate increased Blood cell production in anticipation of future Blood donations. The following information about iron nutrition will help you as you plan to increase your iron intake through the FOODS you eat.

7 (Note; consultation with your personal physician is recommended prior to beginning a course of iron supplementation beyond dietary intake.) 1.)All types of red meat, fish and poultry are excellent dietary sources of iron , since iron from these sources is most easily absorbed by your body. 2.)Many vegetables, fruits, nuts, beans and grains are also good dietary sources of iron , but iron from plant sources such as these is not absorbed efficiently by your body. Vitamin C enhances iron absorption from such plant sources, so eating vitamin C- containing FOODS (grapefruit, oranges, tomatoes, broccoli, and strawberries) in combination with iron - rich vegetables, fruits, nuts, etc.

8 Is recommended. 3.)Caffeinated beverages (coffee, tea, soda) taken with meals can act as iron blockers, as might excess consumption of high fiber FOODS or bran supplements. 4.)The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for pre-menopausal women is 15 mg. per day. The RDA for men and post-menopausal women is 10 mg. per day. 5.) iron content of specific FOODS is given in the attached table.
