A lack of iron can lead to iron deficiency anaemia. Liver is a good source of iron, don't eat it if you are pregnant.

It is also essential in the synthesis and maintenance of nucleoprotein in erythropoesis. It also promotes WBC and platelet production in folate-deficiency anaemia.Vitamin C is necessary for collagen formation and tissue repair; plays a role in oxidation/reduction reactions as well as other metabolic pathways including synthesis of catecholamines, carnitine, and steroids; also plays a role in conversion of folic acid to folinic acid.Vitamin B complex: The building blocks for good health come from a variety of foods, even if they are from the same family of nutrients.
