Vegetarians need almost twice the daily recommended amount of iron compared with non-vegetarians. Iron from plant-based foods is not absorbed as well by our bodies as animal food sources. Iron Content of Some Common Foods 9 4 You can find iron in both animal and plant foods. Animal sources (called "heme iron") include meat, fish and poultry. Our bodies easily absorb this type of iron. Plant sources (called "non-heme iron") include dried beans, peas and lentils and some fruits and vegetables. In Canada, grain products like flour, pasta and breakfast cereals 1 Updated:

2 are fortified with iron. Our bodies better absorb this type of iron when taken along with meat/chicken/fish or a source of vitamin C. Vitamin C rich foods include citrus fruits and juices, cantaloupe, strawberries, broccoli, tomatoes and peppers.
