Here’s the mic drop: cooking in a cast-iron skillet actually leaches iron into your food. It’s like giving your meal an accidental iron injection. Scrambled eggs made in a cast-iron pan can have 16% more iron than usual. That’s not a joke—it’s iron gift-wrapped from your stovetop. So next time you’re feeling like a human sloth, grab a lemon, some clams, and a heavy pan. Your energy levels will thank you, and you’ll have a story to tell at brunch that’s more interesting than your cousin’s sourdough starter.
Now go eat. Your blood cells are waiting.
