Anemia Treatment

ANEMIA Treatment -  Raw Liver Amount Requirement :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bee's note:   Vitamin B12 is also found in red meat liver, along with iron. The traditional treatment was to eat one pound of calf's liver per day, providing almost 200 micrograms of B12.

INSTRUCTIONS / PREPARATIONS :  If blood tests show you are anemic, and you want to quickly increase your iron within 10 days, you can do "ONE" of following:

1. Eat 1/2 pound of raw liver per day for the iron and B12 (100 mcg).
2. Take the equivalent of 1/2 pound of frozen raw liver, cut into pieces small enough to swallow.
3. Grate 1/2 pound of frozen raw liver and add it to broth, soup, or stew.

If you cannot stomach that much liver it will take much longer to raise your iron levels. For more information about Vitamin B12 see the reference below.

How to Make Iron Supplements – 2 basic methods:

1. Freeze liver for 14 days in large chunks. (Fourteen days will ensure the elimination of any possible pathogens and parasites.) Then grate the liver, using a grater with small holes, and mix it into broth, soup, or stew. A teaspoon or two of grated raw liver can be added to baby's egg yolk or to mashed vegetables.
2. Turn raw liver into pills! Cut fresh liver into pea-sized pieces and freeze it for 14 days. Swallow like vitamin pills.

For both methods, use very fresh red meat liver of the highest quality available, and organic or certified organic. To reduce the strong flavor soak liver chunks in lemon juice before freezing.

Dosage - If blood tests show you are anemic, take the equivalent of 1/2 pound of frozen or grated raw liver daily. If you cannot stomach that much liver, it will take much longer to increase your iron levels.
