Depleting Agents: phosphoproteins in eggs Deficiency Deficiency and phytates in unleavened whole wheat reduce iron availability to the body.
Sources: Iron occurs in foodstuffs as heme and nonheme iron. Heme iron, contained in food products from animals, is in the form of hemoglobin or myoglobin. Nonheme iron is iron salts and is contained in plant and dairy products. Nonheme iron makes up the majority of dietary iron, but heme iron is better absorbed.
Iron is found in eggs, fish, liver, meat, poultry, green leafy vegetables, whole grains, and enriched breads and cereals. Other food sources include almonds, avocados, beets, blackstrap molasses, brewer's yeast, dates, dulse, kelp, kidney and lima beans, lentils, millet, peaches, pears, dried prunes, pumpkins, raisins, rice and wheat bran, sesame seeds, soybeans, and watercress.

Precautions: Iron supplements should be kept in childproof bottles and out of the reach of children. Children between the ages of 12 and 24 months are at the highest risk of iron poisoning due to accidental ingestion.
Parenteral iron therapy should be used only when there are specific indications because of the chance of rare anaphylactic reactions, which can be fatal.

Neonates to 6 months: 6 mg
