Spinach is a source of iron as is liver or apricots. Don't drink tea with a meal as it prevents the absorption of iron. Citrus juice such as OJ with your meal is a way to enhance iron absorption from food.

Iron is more readily absorbed in an acidic environment (gastric juices) but since omeprazole can decrease the gastric acid produced, it is good to take vitamin C (ascorbic acid) when taking an iron supplement (both of which should be if advised by your physician) or one can simply take a vitamin C supplement if taking omeprazole when no iron supplement is needed (as would be in the case of iron deficiency anemia which is determined by a blood test).
