Document Summary

Like the major minerals, they provide a variety of essential structural and regulatory roles. Some of their functions are unique: iodine is needed to make thyroid hormones, iron is needed to carry oxygen to body cells, and fluoride is needed for strong teeth. Heme iron accounts for about 5-10% of the dietary iron in western countries: leafy green vegetables, legumes and whole and enriched grains are good sources of nonheme iron. Iron from the diet is absorbed into the intestinal mucosal cells. The amount absorbed depends on whether the iron is heme or nonheme iron as well as the presence of dietary components that enhance or inhibit iron absorption: heme iron is absorbed more efficiently than nonheme iron. These prevent absorption by binding iron in the gastrointestinal tract. Iron in the body: the amount of iron in the body is controlled primarily at the intestine.
