It concludes that several uncertainties make it difficult to determine dose-response relationships or to confidently characterize the risks associated with iron deficiency or excess. The publication makes several recommendations concerning iron intakes from food, including meat, and from supplements, as well as recommendations for further research. http://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/3/3/283/ Mon, 28 Feb 2011 00:00:00 CET Nutrients 2011-02-28 3 3 Review 283 316 2072-6643 Iron, Meat and Health 2011-02-28 doi: 10.3390/nu3030283 Catherine Geissler Mamta Singh
