What is iron?

Iron is a mineral that we absorb from our diet. There are two types of iron, namely haem iron and non-haem iron. Haem iron is mainly found in red meat and is the most absorbable variant. Non-haem iron is found in plant-based sources and is less well absorbed by the body. If you eat a vegan, vegetarian or low meat diet, it is particularly important to maintain your iron intake.

 

What is iron good for?

Iron is important for several bodily processes and offers various health benefits:

  • Iron contributes to the production and formation of red blood cells

  • Iron is good for normal oxygen transport in the body

  • Iron helps with fatigue

  • Iron supports the body's immune system

  • Iron is good for the cell division process
