After writing above, I remembered the obvious RBC enhancing diet that I forgot to mention. This is red meat. Of course, we are all aware of the advice of avoiding red meat for most people. Nevertheless, steak and chops are ready builders of RBC. In oriental market, you may even find coagulated animal blood (chicken or beef) in the fresh section. Actually, the taste is quite alright, with the texture much like tofu. Cook in a chicken broth with a few squares of the coagulated blood, throw some noodle in for a quick meal. It is not as gory as one may think. After all, we all eat rare steak which certainly contains animal blood.
