look up "lodge" cast iron cookware on the web, they have pre seasoned pans and dutchovens. the pan imparts a small amount of iron into the food cooked in it, and it is nice and even cooking.

there are so many reasons to be anemic[sp]. if her bloodwork doesnt improve with iron theapy, can i suggest a multiple mineral tablet and a trip to the dr for more blood work?
