@acweyand I like vitamin C with iron - both fasting and with food increases absorption https://t.co/XvLS36WAoa https://t.co/ON5mGQqki9

Also animal foods can also help the uptake of zinc and iron from plant foods and plant foods offer protection against harmful compounds in cooked meat. https://t.co/5EJAkGPn1y https://t.co/0mHy21shs4

@skndd @branwen74693117 Het lichaam neemt ijzer uit groenten en granen slecht op, 90-95% van dat ijzer gaat de WC in. Daarom is het met name voor kinderen in de groei en voor menstruerende of zwangere vrouwen verstandig om zo nu en dan een klein stukje vlees of vis te eten. https://t.co/hlfWwPwqpN
