Not a good idea to drink it by itself. It's best mixed with carrot. Beet juice, tops and root, is absolutely one of the best natural sources of iron.

Blend em together and refrigerate. You only need to take a tablespoonful or two per day. The Organic Calcium the files for organic calcium will help too. Eat more raw beets too for iron. More dark green leafy veggies. Peace be with you . -- Peace, love and light, Don Quai " Spirit sleeps in the mineral, breathes in the vegetable, dreams in the animal and wakes in man.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 <I, full of kale and savoy cabbage, want to know whatelse I can do for calcuim and iron.> Hi I don't know if this will help and someone else on list would probably know more that me but on that Fruitarian site I mentioned in my previous post they have a page on the Nutritional Contents of Fruits and Nuts and tells you what each vitamin and mineral does for you, deficiency signs and the source. Calcium Essential for growth and for maintaining the strength of the bones and teeth; Calcium also controls the conduction of nerve impulses to and from the brain and the contraction of muscles; Promotes a healthy heart, clots blood, improves skin, maintains the correct acid-alkaline balance, reduces menstrual cramps and tremors; The calcium balance of the body is improved by adequate vitamin D intake and exercise; It is made worse by exposure to lead, consumption of alcohol, coffee and tea or a lack of vitamin D and of hydrochloric acid produced in the stomach; Deficiency signs Muscle cramps or tremors, insomnia or nervousness, joint pain or arthritis, tooth decay, high blood pressure; Source Almonds, prunes, pumpkin seeds; Iron Essential for the formation of red blood cells, and so needed for the circulation because red blood cells carry oxygen around the body; Component of enzymes, vital for energy production; Deficiency signs Anaemia, pale skin, sore tongue, fatigue, listlessness, loss of appetite, nausea, sensitivity to cold; Source Pumpkin seeds, almonds, prunes, cashew nuts, raisins, brazil nuts, walnuts, dates, sesame seeds, pecan nuts; For more vitamins and minerals go to: http://www.fruitarian.com/ac/NutritionalContentsOfFruits.htm Hope this helps but it is only about fruits so someone else would know about veges. love and light Tracey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
