    However, there are foods that can deplete your iron reserves. Therefore, the second recommendation is to avoid the iron robbers; which, according to both traditional and alternative authorities include caffeine, soft drinks, aspirin, antiacids and phosphate-containing soft drinks and ice cream. Teens and people eating junk food may be deficient because they're not, according to conventional nutrition, eating enough iron-rich foods.
