Iron good for health


By: Santtana Looganaden


Iron is the most important nutrient needed to our body which is used to make hemoglobin, which is the component of the red blood cells that carries oxygen. Red blood cells circulate throughout the body to deliver oxygen from the lungs to the various parts of the body. Growing children need iron in their diet and if the child’s diet lacks iron, he or she may develop iron deficiency, which will make it difficult for his or her body to make enough red blood cells. As a result, tissues and organs won’t be able to get the amount of oxygen they need. There are many foods, fruits and vegetables that you can incorporate in your diet to fulfil daily iron requirement.
