What to pair it with
Hinders iron absorption
Don’t drink it with iron-rich meals (buckwheat, legumes, greens): have it at least 1 hour before or 1–2 hours after.

Tea, coffee and milk — separately
This is rich in plant iron. Tea, coffee and dairy at the same meal noticeably lower its absorption — have them an hour before or 1–2 hours after.
Source: PMID 11029010, PMID 20200263, PMID 1984335
Add vitamin C
Bell pepper, sauerkraut, citrus or kiwi at the same meal raise plant iron absorption several times over.

Meat and fish proteins at the same meal boost plant iron absorption.
