The strongest blood supplement is “it,” 7 times stronger than pig liver, supplementing iron and blood production, an essential diet for anemic individuals. Everyone says spring is the shortest season, coming and going quickly. I strongly agree because what I remember most about spring is not just the blooming flowers or the shining sun but the fact that I always get nosebleeds in spring. The elderly say a little bleeding is beneficial as it accelerates the blood circulation system and aids in blood production. Speaking of blood production, I happen to have a significant say because I know of a particular food that is especially effective in blood supplement, surprisingly 7 times stronger in this aspect than pig liver. Anemic individuals must be sure to consume more of it. It is the black fungus, do not underestimate it, its blood supplementing capabilities surpass imagination, making it the strongest in iron and blood production. Are there any other foods that supplement blood effectively?

Blood supplementation: Every 100 grams of black fungus contains 185 milligrams of iron, which is 20 times higher than spinach, the green leafy vegetable with the highest iron content, and about 7 times higher than pig liver, the highest iron-containing animal product. It contains the highest iron content in various foods, aiding in blood enrichment and beautification, improving skin color, and preventing iron-deficiency anemia; reducing platelet aggregation, preventing blood clots, atherosclerosis, and coronary heart disease.
