Iron is not only involved in the synthesis of hemoglobin and many important enzymes, but also plays an important role in immunity, intelligence, aging and energy metabolism. Since more iron is lost during menstruation, it is very important to supplement with iron-rich foods. Fish, lean meat, animal liver, animal blood, etc. are rich in iron and have great biological activity, and are easily absorbed and utilized by the human body; while the plant iron found in soybeans and spinach has a lower absorption rate. Therefore, during menstruation, you should pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables in your diet, and eat more animal foods to meet the special needs for iron during menstruation.
