Is the animal liver high in iron?

Male  31 years old 2018-05-04
I usually take iron to treat anemia because of anemia, but I heard that iron can be supplemented through diet. Is the iron content of animal liver high?

    Vegetables with a high iron content include spinach, amaranth, celery, pakchoi, shepherd's purse, beans, seaweed, kelp, black fungus, mushrooms, etc., but these vegetables have a very low iron absorption rate of only 1%, far Far less than the absorption rate of iron in animal blood, liver, lean meat and other foods (about 20%). It can be seen that the iron content of animal liver is relatively high.
