Does all meat have iron in it?

Answer 1

• Yes. For example, a 3 ounce or 85g serving of Broiled/Overhead Grilled Sirloin Steak, trimmed of all fat, has 3.4 mg of iron. Another example: A London Broil, Minute Steak, or Round Steak with lean and fat, trimmed to a 1/8" rim of fat, has 2.7 mg of iron in a 3 ounce or 85g serving.

• Yes. A typical serving of steak (85grams/3 Ounces) has a 13% DV (daily value) of iron, otherwise noted as 2.4 mg of iron.

Answer 2

Yes beans contain iron. Dried beans etc do. They have to have grown in soil w iron in it but in most cases yes almost as much as meat. That doesnt dont eat meat though u still need nutrition and substance.

Answer 3

In a word, yes. However, you do not have to eat beef or any other type of meat to get iron. You can get it easily from beans and other legumes as well as dark green vegetables like kale, spinach, and mustard or collard greens. The best way to absord iron from foods is to always combine an iron rich food with a vitamin c rich food, like a serving of citrus fruit, berries, other fruit, or a small glass of fruit juice. There's also a prouct I have used myself while I was pregnant to maintain healthy iron levels called Floradix Iron and Herbs. It was very effective, and worked quickly. Hope this helps!
