Hi lybrate-user. It is not possible to mention the course of medicine without consultation. As we require more details to diagnose and give accurate treatment. What you want is blind treatment and it may harm more than good.
So better consult and take proper treatment.
The diet should be more with green veges, fruits, salads, and pulses. With milk at least once 200 ml.

Start taking lots of fruits and vegetables. (green leafy vegetables have a good source of iron ). Try to eat grains and pulses which are natural (unpolished ). You can also take a few nuts and other dry fruits which can provide various types of vitamins and minerals. If needed you can also take a short course of suppliments (iron and vitamin supplements ). Do exercise everyday to keep yourself fit and energetic. Please revert after a few weeks.

Not at all, infact try to correct your iron level with the help of some dietitian. Eat more greens and add almonds, raisins,dates and apricots in your diet. Along with it eat fresh fruits like guava, oranges,kiwi and grapes.
