Blackstrap Molasses! Who knew a serving can contain 70% the RDA for Iron in the adult diet? Wow! However, not all blackstrap molasses is created equal. The House of Herbs is the only brand I have found to have this high concentration of iron! Please read your label carefully! This is a great addition to help your baby get iron. I only add a drop or two to any baby food recipe. A drop can go a long way and the taste might over power the food. For my local mamas, this brand can be found at Weiss Markets. I always serve a high vitamin C puree with a high iron food as it will help increase the absorption rate of the iron. I like to use with mango, applesauce, or mashed berries! This can also be used for a child or adult by adding to your smoothies,oatmeal, baked goods, etc. Enjoy!
