“Give your body plenty of iron.” When you donate whole blood or double red cells, your body loses some iron contained in red blood cells. Eat plenty of iron-rich food to replace these cells between donations. Foods rich in iron include: red meat, broccoli, fish, spinach, poultry, raisins, beans, prunes, iron fortified cereal, shrimp, tomatoes, oysters, rice, peas, watermelon and potatoes.
