iron
Taking vitamin C/acsorbic acid with your meals will increase the absorption of iron from your foods. If you like spinach salads, or any leafy greens, try adding lemon juice to the dressing.
Anything with tannins in it, like coffee, tea, red wine, will decrease the uptake of iron. So you don't want to drink these with your meals all the time.
