Our body does not manufacture it naturally, so it is forced to extract it from food. Thus, many people suffer from iron deficiencies, firstly due to a poor diet, and above all because this mineral is difficult for our metabolism to assimilate. Therefore, to avoid deficiencies, we give you a list of the vegetables richest in iron. To consume at will!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pourquoi-le-fer-est-aussi-important-pour-notre-sante\">Why is iron so important for our health?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paul Thomas, scientific advisor for the National Institutes of Health and the Office of Dietary Supplements, explains that: \u201cThe main reason we need iron is that it helps transport oxygen throughout the body. It is an essential component of hemoglobin, whose function is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the entire body. The latter cannot get the oxygen content it needs without perfectly healthy red blood cells. \u201c. He adds: \u201cIf you don&#8217;t have enough oxygen in your body, you can feel extremely tired.\u201d He note that an iron deficiency affects the functioning of the brain and weakens the immune system, which is therefore less resistant to infections. Furthermore, in case of pregnancy,&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Present in small quantities but no less necessary for our good health, the iron we absorb is eliminated every day (or at least a good part of it). It is therefore necessary to balance the losses with a sufficiently rich daily food intake. In fact, on average, a man&#8217;s body contains about 4 g of iron, while a woman&#8217;s contains only 2.5 g. However, it is women and teenagers who need it the most, as they have to make up for the amounts lost during their period. Thus, the recommended daily intake for you Ladies is 9mg, when that for men is 8mg per day. However, during pregnancy the daily intake should be 20 mg to ensure healthy development of the fetus.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"10-legumes-qui-contiennent-plus-de-fer-que-la-viande\">10 vegetables that contain more iron than meat&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is, meat contains 1.2 mg of iron per 100 g.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The spinach\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With 2.14 mg of iron per 100g of fresh leaves, it is one of the most important sources of iron.
