I suffer from iron-deficiency anemia, and I thought that as long as I pay attention to iron supplementation from the diet, it will get better. Can the effect of food iron supplementation really be good?

BY Mamie Doris 2018-06-26Although food can supplement iron, the effect is not significant. Spinach and other iron-rich plants contain non-heme iron, and only about 2％ to 20％ non-heme iron can be absorbed. In contrast, the iron in animal foods, especially meat, is called heme iron, and only 15％ to 35％ can be absorbed.4
