Iron
Iron is necessary for the body to produce red blood cells and DNA. It is also important for energy metabolism. A lack of this element might increase the risk of anemia. The recommended daily intake for iron is around 8 mg. There are two forms of iron, non-heme and heme. Non-heme iron can be found in plants, while heme iron can be found in animal products. Iron-rich foods include seeds, nuts, dried fruit, peas, beans, veggies, and cereals. Some common iron-fortified products include plant milk, enriched bread, and cereals.[7]
