Don't forget that pairing Vitamin C with your supplements really helps with absorption, but you definitely need folic acid from the B-vitamin family too!
Honestly, out of everything I tried while dealing with low iron during my pregnancy, spirulina was a total lifesaver for me—though, quick pro tip, stick to the tablets because the powder is just absolutely gross 🙂 !

So, when I was pregnant, my iron levels were just totally tanking, and even after chugging supplements like Spensa and loading up on all the good stuff—lots of grains, sprouts, red meat, beets, you name it—it still kept dropping.
It didn't actually start looking normal again until I finally tried some spirulina (honestly, grab the tablets because the powder is just straight-up gross :slurp)
