Iron is a mineral that is naturally present in many foods, added to some food products, and available as a dietary supplement. Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin, an erythrocyte (red blood cell) protein that transfers oxygen from the lungs to the tissues. As a component of myo-globin, another protein that provides oxygen, iron supports muscle metabolism & healthy connective tissue. Iron is also necessary for physical growth, neurological development, cellular functioning & synthesis of some hormones. Dietary iron has two main forms: heme and non-heme. Plants and iron-fortified foods contain non-heme iron only, whereas meat, seafood, and poultry contain both heme and non-heme iron. Heme iron, which is formed when iron combines with protoporphyrin IX, contributes about 10% to 15% of total iron intakes. Most of the 3 to 4 grams of elemental iron in adults is in hemoglobin. Much of the remaining iron is stored in the form of ferritin or hemosiderin (a degradation product of ferritin) in the liver, spleen, and bone marrow or is located in myo-globin in muscle tissue. Transferrin is the main protein in blood that binds to iron & transports it throughout the body.
