Iron is an important dietary mineral that is involved in various bodily functions, including the transport of oxygen in the blood. This is essential in providing energy for daily life. Iron deficiency means less oxygen is delivered to the cells. This can lead to fatigue, tiredness,sleepyness, and decreased immunity.


Treatment for iron deficiency anaemia includes adding iron-rich foods to the diet and may also mean taking iron supplements for up to 12 months under medical supervision.


High-risk groups such as vegetarians, adolescent girls and women athletes need to eat iron-rich foods each day (combined with foods that are high in vitamin C).


  • Wholegrain cereals, meat, poultry and fish are good sources of dietary iron.
  • Liver is an especially rich source of iron, Choose iron-fortified breakfast cereals and breads.
  • Vegetarians who exclude all animal products from their diet may need almost twice as much dietary iron each day as non-vegetarians. Sources include dark green leafy vegetables – such as spinach – and raisins, nuts, seeds, beans, peas, and iron-fortified cereals, breads and pastas.
  • Vitamin C increases iron absorption, so eat more brightly coloured fruits and vegetables.
  • Cut back on the amount of tea and coffee you drink, especially around mealtimes, since the tannins in tea and coffee bind to the iron and interfere with absorption.
