The health of your blood dictates the heath of the rest of your body. Anemia is a result of low iron levels in the blood, causing fatigue and sluggishness. A diet low in iron and Vitamin B12 inhibits the ability of your blood to carry oxygen to the muscle cells and organs in your body. Eating iron-rich foods, such as raisins, can increase your B12 levels and iron levels safely, without the risk of over-consumption that iron supplements can have. Raisins contain B Vitamin compounds responsible for the formation of new blood. They're also part of the recommended diet for anemia prevention by the Heart, Blood, and Lung Association.
