No, a plant-based diet does not automatically make you deficient in Iron.

According to the NHS the recommend daily intake is as follows:

❤️ 8.7mg a day for men aged 19 and over
❤️ 14.8mg a day for women aged 19 to 49
❤️ 8.7mg a day for women aged 50 and over

Save this to make sure you are hitting your RI.

*mg per 100g

Mushrooms are fruiting bodies 🍄‍🟫
Humans are fruiting bodies 🍄
Fruit, flowers, and mushrooms all have a very feminine nature to me. They are nature in reproduction and contain the highest amount of nutrition easily digested and quickly turned into fuel

I am 'that weird plant based' mama who knows how to hunt and skin an animal. As a child I knew that food didn't come from the grocery store.
I am thankful for my dad teaching me the importance of hunting and fishing, am invaluable skill....
It took me a great chunk of my adult life to discover what worked for my body. I spent my 20's making bone broth and eating local grass fed meat and gelatin. I continued to eat that way even though my body was screaming at me and my PH was too acidic.
Endometriosis symptoms would run wild when heavy proteins were being digested.
It was by total fluke that I discovered my frugavore nature. Having access to fruit trees (free food) in a time where I could not afford to buy meat anymore.

My body began to glow for the first time, I gained healthy weight and had more energy than I ever had when I was younger

Whatever your diet entails, my only hope is that you feel well nourished and thriving!
I am not a nutritionist and this is not health 'advice'. This is simply my personal experience as a woman who struggled deeply with hormonal health and was told by my doctor at 18 that I needed a hysterectomy.
I am over the half way mark, welcoming in this beautiful new life in my womb.
Gratitude to the plants and mushrooms always for keeping me vital and full of life force even when growing a human

This is your friendly reminder to please thoroughly check the contents of your wildflower seed packets to ensure you are not planting an invasive species.
'Invasives' or what I like to refer to as 'opportunistic plants' have the ability to outgrow the surrounding native plants causing them to be choked out from sunlight.

What should you plant that is best for our local bees? 🐝

My top two suggestions would be:

🌼Goldenrod (Solidago lepida)
🌺 Fireweed (Chananerion angustifolium)

What are your favorite native varieties to grow? 🌸
