Original title: Iron supplement, is your method correct
Medicine tonic is not as good as food tonic.
Spinach, egg yolk iron supplement is a misunderstanding
When it comes to spinach, many people immediately think of its iron and blood-replenishing effects, and many parents also "feed" large amounts of spinach to their children.
In 1870, there was a German scientist named Wolf who specially measured the iron content of spinach, but made a "low-level error" in the calculation-shifting one decimal point to the right.
In fact, spinach, like other green leafy vegetables, does not contain high iron content.
Many parents use egg yolks to supplement iron for their children.
It's best to eat animal organs to supplement iron
There is a huge gap in the efficiency of iron supplementation between different foods.
Animal viscera is rich in protein, vitamin A and trace element iron, but animal viscera foods are not suitable for everyone.
Iron supplementation can follow the following principles.
In addition, do not over-intake dietary fiber.
