    That's some testicular fortitude to come along and tell everyone their advice was crap. I think everyone else had pretty much covered it, and I'll echo one other thing - don't give out dietary advice. Ever. For the sake of humanity.

    She is absolutely right, we did tell her she couldn't do it without iron pills. Of course she forgot to mention that she was told that AFTER about 5 different threads about her iron is low because she doesn't like the iron rich foods she needs to raise it naturally.

    Instead, the OP prefers to eat huge amounts of fortified cereals to increase her iron. So...4 servings of cereal each day to make that tiny jump in her iron. A small enough jump that the blood pulled for the test probably negated it.

    Keep eating that cereal, OP. Kellogg's loves you!

    ETA: Also, shame on you OP, for giving any sort of medical advice. Eat more cereal and forget supplements is TERRIBLE advice and you could hurt someone.
