Answer:true you would require 1.8 times more iron to meet your daily needs. But if you are pre or pat menopausal that would equal to 18 mg to increase your iron. Eat foods high in iron such as kidney beans, lentils, whole grains, pumpkin seeds and/ or blackstrap molasses. Even whole grained cereals add extra iron as well as enriched pasta and rice helps meet those needs
