hi guys in this video I want to talk

about the relationship between vitamin C

in iron I had a couple questions related

to being a vegan and the difference

between heme iron and non heme iron okay

because you have heme iron which comes

from animal sources and of course they

didn’t want to consume those sources

they want to do plant sources of iron

but non heme plant sources of iron don’t

absorb as well they’re not bile

available like heme iron okay so there

is something you could do to increase

the absorption rate and that would be

vitamin C okay but not synthetic vitamin

C I would get it from lemons not lemon

juice but actual lemons that you would

have to cut open and squeeze okay or

berries you could do berries like

blackberry and raspberry would be the

best source of vitamin C or bell peppers

so when you’re consuming a vegan source

of iron okay just make sure you add some

vitamin C to spike the absorption so

when you’re getting your iron from

vegetables or legumes or nuts or seeds

make sure at the same time you consume

the lemons the bearers of bell peppers

foods that are high in vitamin C to

increase absorption and just make sure

that you don’t consume these iron

sources like ferric oxide or ferric

hydroxide which normally come in a pill

form with a bunch of other synthetic

vitamins alright thanks for watching
