Answers:
Iron deficiency anemia is due to a lack of iron - however, you body uses many of the B vitamins to make the iron in your body "work" better. Vitamin C also increases how much iron you absorb.

Take the iron, or a multivitamin with iron (which ever your health care proffesional suggested) - and get your nutritional information from reliable sources.

I suggest the Merck manual

If thats a bit too complicated, then you might like the information available at the National Center for Complimentary and Alternative Medicine
