My Kitchen

I'm sorry, but I'm not one of those kitchen experts. I hardly know how to cook (well I can make pasta, but everybody can make that).
So as you can see, this part of my site will not be dedicated to my home-cooking, if this term exists in my case. I want to dedicate it to something that in my opinion is more important: nutrition.
More than half a year ago it was discovered that I suffer from a lack of Iron and the vitamin B12 in my blood. I'm also slightly anemic. This has caused my interest in all sides of nutrition, and I would like to share that with you.
I want to apologize from the beginning for any spelling mistakes you might find here. Hebrew is my mother tongue, not English. I've tried to avoid spelling mistakes, but I might have overlooked some. I'd appreciate your corrections (but not your flames).

Here is my first issue..... :
