In July 2026, Serbia’s health authority issued a guide that highlighted iron‑rich foods as a means to prevent anemia. A few weeks later, the guidance was broadened to include specific recommendations on fruits and eggs: cranberries and pomegranate were compared for their vitamin C, fiber and antioxidant content, while eggs were promoted as an affordable source of high‑quality protein, essential vitamins, minerals and eye‑supporting antioxidants. The evolving advice reflects a shift from a narrow focus on iron to a more comprehensive set of nutritional recommendations.
