5. Iron
Iron is the key component of red blood cells, which carries oxygen to the cells in the body. A lack of iron leads to iron deficiency anemia, which can make you feel tired , irritable or depressed. Adolescent and premenopausal females have been found to lack iron, and
pregnant women should get their iron levels checked regularly. When I was pregnant, my blood tests revealed that I was deficient – so much so that my doctor recommended I eat more iron-filled foods and take an iron supplement.
Foods providing iron: red meat, poultry, beans, lentils, leafy green vegetables
