| | Ironing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Irons cause many fires and injuries each year due to their being very heavy, very hot, and often used on ironing boards that can fall over onto small children. | | | While the molecules are hot, the fibres are straightened by the weight of the iron, and they hold their new shape as they cool. | | | From the 17th century, sadirons or sad irons (from an old word meaning solid) began to be used. |

| | Iron overload in black people of South Africa is associated with chronic exposure to diets containing too much iron derived mainly from cooking pots and steel barrels used to ferment beer. | | | The absorption of nonheme iron is strongly influenced by enhancers and inhibitors present in the same meal (3, 7). | | | Plants, dairy products, meat, and iron salts added to foods and supplements are all sources of nonheme iron. |

| | Iron |
| | Iron skillets used for cooking can add to the total iron intake of the food being cooked in them, especially when acidic foods are cooked (such as tomato sauce). | | | This increase is largely due to the fortification and increase in consumption of cereals, flours, breads, and enriched grains. | | | Nonheme sources that are high in iron include cooked spinach, beans, eggs, nuts, fortified breads, cereals, and flours. |

| | Dietary Supplement Fact Sheet: Iron |
| | Heme iron is found in animal foods that originally contained hemoglobin, such as red meats, fish, and poultry. | | | In one survey, twenty percent of adults age 20 to 59 and 13.6% of adults age 60 and older from food insufficient families consumed less than 50% of the RDA for iron, as compared to 13% of adults age 20 to 50 and 2.5% of adults age 60 and older from food sufficient families [30]. | | | Total dietary iron intake in vegetarian diets may meet recommended levels; however that iron is less available for absorption than in diets that include meat [58]. |

| | Iron: It's good for your blood |
| | Meat, poultry, and fish provide a form of the mineral called heme iron that's easier for your body to absorb than the kind found in legumes, vegetables, and grains, which is called nonheme iron. | | | Here are a few more tips for getting as much iron as possible from the food you eat: Cook in a cast-iron pan. | | | (Moist, acidic foods, such as tomato sauce, are especially good at soaking up iron this way.) Cut back on coffee and tea, or drink them between meals, because they contain compounds called phenols that interfere with iron absorption. |

| | Good food sources of iron are liver and other organ meats, red meat like beef, beans and peas. | | | The non-heme iron found in beans and peas, however, can be made more absorbable by eating foods rich in vitamin C such as citrus fruit or tomatoes. | | | The form of iron found in meats is called heme iron, and is much more bioavailable (absorbable) than the type of iron (non-heme) found in plants. |

| | The best dietary sources of iron are liver and other organ meats, lean red meat, poultry, fish, and shellfish (particularly oysters). | | | In the U.S. grain products such as breads and cereals are fortified with iron. | | | For example, vitamin C helps the absorption of this type of iron while calcium (including all dairy products), bran, tea, and unprocessed whole grain products block its absorption. |

| | Heme iron, which is found mainly in animal products, is absorbed much better than nonheme iron, which accounts for more than 85% of iron in the average diet. | | | Iron deficiency, which can cause anemia, is the most common nutritional deficiency in the world. | | | However, absorption of nonheme iron is increased when it is consumed with animal protein and vitamin C. Iron requirements, iron metabolism, and iron-deficiency anemia are discussed in Anemias Caused by Deficient Erythropoiesis in Ch. |
