Bruising easily...what am I missing?

I bruise really easily and I know if you do you are missing a mineral or vitamin of some sort. I get bruises and I don't even know how I get them. Any help?

take an iron supplement or eat more red meat, at least four times a week to keep your iron levels up.  i also bruise very easily and this is the advice a nurse offered to me, so i would give it a shot
