A nutritionist once told me to have more iron in my diet. He also told me about iron deficiency and how it is common in the US. Unfortunately, most of us don’t consume enough iron. Anemia (the most common form of iron deficiency) is a condition in which the body doesn’t have enough iron to support healthy blood and red blood cell production. According to the World Health Organization, approximately 15 percent of the world’s population is affected. Anemia can occur in children, women, and men. Adults older than 50 are most likely to be affected. It is a condition that can be diagnosed by blood tests and treated with iron supplements.
What Vegetables Have Iron
So, which vegetables are the best food sources of iron? While spinach is a staple for your diet, you can also find iron in the following foods: sardines, eggs, beef, lentils, tofu, red meat, chicken, dried fruit, asparagus, broccoli, broccoli, kale, tuna, beet greens, nuts, and beans.
Iron in Meat
Iron is present in animal meats, but also in other types of food that animals eat. Therefore, to get enough iron, you need to eat a variety of foods. If you eat meat with enough vegetables, the two will balance out and you’ll get all the iron you need. For example, beef and other types of red meat are high in iron, but also high in other nutrients, such as saturated fats. Therefore, you need to eat beef with a lot of vegetables to balance out the unhealthy fats.
Iron in Fish
Seafood is a great source of iron. This mineral is often lacking in the diets of people in many parts of the world. As mentioned above, iron is needed for making red blood cells, which carry oxygen. It also helps build muscles and strengthen bones. Iron deficiency can lead to anemia, a condition in which there are not enough red blood cells to carry the required oxygen to the body’s organs. So, in order to reduce iron deficiency, you should eat foods that are rich in iron, including seafood and plant sources. One of the most common ways to do this is by eating more shellfish, such as oysters and mussels. However, plant sources of iron include kale, spinach, beans, lentils and sunflower seeds.
Iron in Other Foods
Iron is needed for the proper functioning of red blood cells and can be found in a variety of foods. The body stores iron from food, but it is important that you get enough iron from food in your diet. Some of the foods with iron include:
