Iron is a vital mineral that plays a critical role in the human body
-
It is an essential component of hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. Without sufficient iron, the body cannot produce enough healthy red blood cells, leading to anemia, fatigue, and a weakened immune system. Eating a diet rich in iron is therefore essential to maintain good health. In this article, we will explore some of the best foods for iron and how to incorporate them into your diet.
TYPES OF IRON
There are two types of dietary iron: heme and non-heme iron. Heme iron is found in animal products and is more easily absorbed by the body than non-heme iron, which is found in plant-based foods. However, there are still plenty of plant-based sources of iron that can provide adequate amounts of this vital mineral.
