    you cant, you need ferrous sulphate tablets, three a day, it will take about three months to feel fully better. in the meantime you need to find out why you are so anaemic, and why your iron is so low.

      folic acid will raise your folates but you need iron tablets, also try and drink orange juice, vit C helps your body absorb iron better.
