Food iron absorption in human subjects. V. Effects of the major dietary constituents of semisynthetic meal

ER Monsen and JD Cook

Studies were performed in adult volunteer subjects to determine the effect on nonheme iron absorption of protein, carbohydrate, and fat. These constituents were administered as egg albumin, dextrimaltose, and corn oil, respectively, in a semisynthetic meal containing 700 kcal and 4.1 mg iron. Because any one of these ingredients are unpalatable when administered alone, their effect was determined by serially deleting or doubling their content in the basal semisynthetic meal. With both approaches, carbohydrate and fat had little influence whereas egg albumin had a significant inhibitory effect on the absorption of nonheme iron.
