Iron is important for Oxygen transportation in our bodies, the endocrine system, immune system, and energy production. Non-haem iron is sourced from plant-based foods, whilst haem iron can be sourced from animal-based foods. Only two forms of iron (Fe) are present in the body: Ferrous iron (Fe2+), which can be absorbed by the body, and Ferric iron (Fe3+).
