Kitchen utensils can affect blood quality .
As ukr.media writes, this is the conclusion of the British surgeon Karan Rajan.
“If you want to get more iron with food, cook in a cast iron frying pan,” he said.
A cast iron frying pan enriches the food you cook in it with iron. A small amount of the microelement is washed out of the walls of the dishes and combined with food. This enrichment occurs especially intensely if you cook something liquid or sour.
"The longer you cook something and the more thoroughly you mix, the more iron will be in your dish. And the combination of iron with vitamin C contained in foods will make the microelement more bioavailable, says the surgeon.
The question, of course, is how much this iron is absorbed and helps increase hemoglobin, but a 2003 study showed that this is still possible .
If you consider that more than half of the people on the entire planet suffer from iron deficiency, and most of them are women, then you don’t want to neglect even this method of raising hemoglobin.
"But Keep in mind that cooking in cast iron cannot be considered a way to treat anemia or correct hemoglobin levels. In such cases, you should follow the therapy prescribed by your doctor. This is just an aid that will help balance your diet a little,” doctors warn.
