    About this ebook

    Iron is a very important element that is present in the cells of
    both humans and plants. This is essential for the healthy
    growth of a person and plants. Ideally, iron is a mineral that
    carries out various important functions in the human body. This
    iron allows you to maintain the hemoglobin levels in the blood.
    In addition, it carries the oxygen from lungs to the different
    parts of human body besides ensuring that optimal level of
    oxygen is maintained in the muscles. Every cell in the human
    body needs iron to stay active and promote sound physical
    health. It is vital for human beings to take an essential amount
    of iron in their diet. So, you need to add the food items that
    have ample iron in your diet. The body absorbs iron after
    three hours of having food. Basically, deficiency of iron results
    in various diseases. So, it is important for you to maintain the
    iron level in the body by having iron rich food every day. You
    need to take leafy vegetables, beans, sprouts, root vegetables,
    dried fruits, cereals, wild rice, macaroni, eggs, seafood, lamb,
    pork, etc.
