Iron is a vital mineral essential for proper growth and development. Your body uses it to produce haemoglobin and certain hormones. Although it can be taken as a supplement, enough iron is available in our dietary sources. Here's a list for vegans!
Lentils are not only full of iron, but also high in potassium, fibre, and folate, a B vitamin.
Tofu is an integral part of a vegan diet. It has a higher iron content of 6.6 milligrams per half-cup.
Adding spinach to meals, whether it’s sauteed in a dish or added to smoothies, is an easy way of including more iron in your diet.
Beans are a great source of iron. Kidney beans, soybeans, and lima beans have the highest iron content.
Nuts and seeds are rich in iron. They can be added to smoothies, desserts and can also be eaten alone as a quick snack.
