In this cross-sectional study of the iron status of pregnant women in Bloemfontein, South Africa, a high prevalence of anaemia and ID of severe and moderate public health significance, respectively, were identified [28, 38], despite the reported intake of iron supplements, thus demonstrating our...
An investigation has been made of the iron intake of sixty-three men and sixty-three women of the English middle class, living on freely chosen diets. Their intakes of total iron have been found to have mean values of 16·8 and 11·4 mg. per day respectively. The highest value found ...
be the same as that of the adjacent category. When units of measurement for a specific exposure differed across studies, they were converted to the most commonly reported or conventional unit. For example, when iron intake was reported in mg/1000 kcal, we converted it to mg/day using the...

During the oily fish diet, PUFA intake was significantly higher (p=0.010) and iron intake lower (mean±SD, 11.5±3.4 mg/day vs . 13.9±0.1 mg/day, p=0.008), both diets providing lower mean daily iron intake than recommended for menstruating women. Although there were no significant ...
2 Menstruation causes an increased need of 0.56 mg of iron per day. 2 Needs are greater for pregnant women than for nonpregnant women. Men and postmenopausal women are at little risk for iron deficiency. 3 It has been documented that iron deficiencies are more prevalent among ...
In a high groundwater iron areas, daily iron intake from water was associated linked to higher serum ferritin levels in women of reproductive age [14]. Other studies found lower iron deficiency prevalence in high versus low groundwater water iron settings, [13, 22] although groundwater iron ...
Using Cox proportional hazards models, we found no association of iron or heme iron intake with risk of breast cancer overall, in women consuming 30+ g of alcohol per day, or in women who had ever used hormone replacement therapy. The present study offers no support for an association of ...
