Human Plasma Iron Responses Following Test Doses of Iron from Known Sources
Keyword(s):
Abstract A study was conducted to determine the effects of certain dietary components on iron absorption in human subjects. Iron absorption was measured by plasma iron responses following test doses of iron as ferrous sulfate or ferric pyrophosphate alone or with egg, enriched white bread, or ascorbic acid. The effects of egg on iron absorption were inconclusive. Phytates at the level present in enriched white bread had no adverse effects and 500 mg ascorbic acid proved beneficial.
