Iron (Fe) is an essential nutrient that carries oxygen and forms part of the
oxygen-carrying proteins, hemoglobin in red blood cells and myoglobin in muscle.
It is best known for it's role in circulation oxygen to the various tissues in
the body through it's role in the production of hemoglobin. Iron is also
necessary for energy, vitality and a healthy immune system and a necessary
component of various enzymes.
About 15 percent of your body's iron is stored for future needs and mobilized
when dietary intake is inadequate. The remainder is in your body's tissues as
part of proteins that help your body function. Adult men and post-menopausal
women lose very little iron except through bleeding. Women with heavy monthly
periods can lose a significant amount of iron. Your body usually maintains
normal iron status by controlling the amount of iron absorbed from food
Iron is an essential trace element in human nutrition. The USRDA for Iron is
