RE: [ozmidwifery] Anaemia remedies

[Tania Smallwood]

Bloom’s Iron Tonic for me, tastes heaps better than the Floradix, and our vegetarian and vegan women accept it much more than the others available.  Some women use stinging nettle tea, and parsley is supposedly good too..   Tania x   From: owner-ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au [mailto:owner-ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au] On Behalf Of Helen and Graham Sent: Thursday, 12 January 2006 10:11 AM To: ozmidwifery Subject: [ozmidwifery] Anaemia remedies   We are having a discussion about remedies for anaemia in pregnancy at work at the moment.  One of the midwives has been recommending parsley and pineapple juice but one of the doctors is saying it causes a build up of uric acid?!   I recall hearing about floradix being recommended by some midwives and Elevit by others.    Apart from FGF, I would be interested in what people are recommending in their practices.   Thanks   Helen -- No virus found in this incoming message.
