Awesome, Very valuable information. It is necessary that we take care of out health and also of the kids. The diet requirements can be easily be met by eating fortified cereals and breads, dried fruits such as raisins, spinach, molasses, beans, lentils, and eggs. All these foods are also rich in iron.
