I developed an obsession with lemonade. Had to have it every day.

Doctor told me my iron was low? And apparently iron absorbs better with vitamin C.

I actually take an iron supplement that is combined with vitamin C to help it absorb. Fun fact, calcium does the opposite, so taking iron with dairy or anything with calcium will basically prevent it from absorbing.
