Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Posted April 15, 2007 This has not posted in two tries over several days. I'm trying again... For an extensive list of plant-based foods (animal based too) and their iron content (the top 38 are plant-based! I missed an animal organ at 4.9 mg) have a look here: soystache.com/iron.htm Jeff Quote

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Posted April 15, 2007 Do you happen to know how sprouting affects iron content? >For an extensive list of plant-based foods (animal based too) and >their iron content (the top 38 are plant-based!

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Posted April 15, 2007 I don't know what the difference would be. Right before my nutrition table on the iron page is a link to the USDA nutrition database. Try searching for common seeds and the resulting sprouts (such as alfalfa). and compare those numbers. I suspect the seeds are more concentrated, so would have more. The sprouts would have more water, but they are certainly more " alive " . Jeff > Do you happen to know how sprouting affects iron content? > Quote
