Egg yolk is also a very good iron supplement food, with high iron content but low yield. Egg yolk contains 7 mg of iron per100g, and the iron absorption rate is only 3%. However, because eggs are common food, convenient to eat and high in nutritional value, it is still very beneficial for one-year-old babies to replenish blood.
3 All kinds of lean meat Although the iron content in lean meat is not too high, the utilization rate of iron is similar to that of pig liver, which is easy to process. One-year-old babies also like it. When a mother uses meat as a supplementary food for her baby, she should pay attention to refining and crushing, which is conducive to the baby's tender and smooth gastrointestinal absorption. Lean meat can be made into minced meat and fish paste.
4 Eat more vegetables and juices containing vitamin C. In order to better absorb iron, one-year-old baby should pay attention to adding some vegetables to the complementary food. Dark green vegetables contain vitamin C, which can promote the absorption of iron. Vegetables are usually steamed and mashed with a spoon, such as spinach puree, pumpkin puree and broccoli puree. These mashed vegetables can be added to pork liver or lean porridge to promote the absorption of iron. You can drink some apple juice or strawberry juice after meals to promote the absorption of iron.
