Presumably, many people know that iron is very important to human health and plays many irreplaceable roles. For example, participate in the transportation and storage of oxygen, promote physical development and maintain skin health. In life, many people lack iron, such as pregnant women, the elderly and children. For people with iron deficiency, generally speaking, in addition to taking some iron supplements according to the doctor's advice, you can also supplement some iron elements for your body through diet in your daily life.

Then, maybe everyone wants to ask, what are the foods with high iron content? Don't worry, Bian Xiao will come and talk to you today. Tell the truth: The following five foods are high in iron and should not be underestimated. They are among the best in all kinds of food. Let's make a quick comparison. Maybe you never knew them.

The iron content in animal blood is very high. Common animal blood includes pig blood, chicken blood, duck blood and sheep blood. Relatively speaking, pig blood is more common. Although it is difficult to buy fresh pig blood in the market in northern China, blood sausage is also very common. In southern China, fresh pig blood is common and cheap. A few dollars can buy several large pieces of pig blood. Chicken blood, duck blood and sheep blood may be hard to see in the market.

It is found that the iron content in the liver of animals such as pig liver and chicken liver is relatively high, which is easily absorbed by human body. For many people, there may be toxins in animal livers. In fact, don't worry too much about this, because the liver is a detoxification organ, not a poison storage organ. As long as you don't eat it every day, just eat 1-2 times a week. Don't worry about toxins, you can eat it with confidence. If it is excessive, it is definitely inappropriate, because the liver is rich in iron and cholesterol, and it is not suitable for overeating. Meat can be roughly divided into red meat and white meat according to color. Common red meats are lean pork, lean beef and lean sheep. These red meats are also rich in iron. But now pork, beef and mutton are more expensive. Maybe people will buy it if they spend money? Distressed? For a while!

Egg yolks and other egg yolks also contain high iron. It should be noted that if the eggs are boiled for too long, the iron in the yolk is easily combined with some substances in protein, which is not easily absorbed by the human body and will be excreted with the stool. So control the time when cooking eggs. Generally speaking, after boiling water on high fire, cook it on low fire for 8~ 10 minutes.

Beans are also high in iron. Moreover, legumes are common in life, such as soybeans, tofu, black beans, tofu, soybean milk and so on. The price is not expensive, and it is more close to the people.

In short, the iron content of the above five foods is relatively high. However, generally speaking, the iron contained in animal foods is more easily absorbed by the human body. Therefore, if you want to get iron through diet, eating animal blood, animal liver and red meat is more effective. Of course, when eating plant foods such as beans, you can also eat them with foods with high vitamin C content, which will help improve the iron absorption rate of the human body.
