Did you know that one sachet of Spatone contains as much elemental iron than 8lbs / 3oz of broccoli?
- Iron deficiency anaemia is the most common mineral deficiency worldwide (WHO 2004) with women and children being the main vulnerable groups.
- Iron is the only mineral that women need more of than men!
During 1940 to 1991 a study in the UK indicated that the iron content of:
- Meat (10 cuts) dropped by 54%
- Vegetables (27 Varieties) dropped by 27%
- Fruits (17 Varieties) dropped by 24%*
indicating that it is getting more difficult to get all the iron your body needs from food alone!
