NOTES : When iron-rich foods such as beans or vegetarian " meats " are eaten

with vitamin rich foods such as tomatoes, onions and peppers, the

body's absorption of iron is greatly increased. Make vegetable

stock from stock powder or cubes (available at health food stores

and many supermarkets). Look for brands that don't contain

hydrogenated fats.
