[quote=Anonymous]Iron from eggs is not easily absorbed. Typically less than 5% of the iron in eggs is absorbed. It is a very low source of iron. I am not a big meat eater as I just don’t like it and would prefer not to eat animals but I have low ferritin and need more protein than I can get in a veggie diet. I eat some fish and some chicken - these animals are less sentient and social than pigs and cows. I will eat red meat if it is served to me at someone’s home but otherwise I avoid it. I eat a lot of veggies and legumes and a some nuts but I have to take iron supplements to keep my ferritin from bottoming out.[/quote]
