Iron Absorption Sites
Most iron is absorbed in the duodenum and upper jejunum of the small intestine.
Heme iron (from animal sources) is absorbed via a different, more efficient pathway than non-heme iron.
Factors That Enhance Absorption
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid): Converts iron to a form more easily absorbed.
Animal proteins: Enhance non-heme iron absorption when eaten together.
Fermentation and sprouting: Reduce antinutrients like phytic acid in plant foods, improving bioavailability.
Factors That Inhibit Absorption
Phytates: Found in whole grains, legumes, and some vegetables.
Calcium: From dairy or supplements, can block iron uptake.
Tannins and polyphenols: Present in tea, coffee, red wine, and chocolate.
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs): Reduce stomach acid, impairing iron absorption.
To maximize the effectiveness of iron boosters, timing and food combinations matter greatly.
