The members were invited by the British Nutrition Foundation to review the current state of knowledge of the nutritional and physiological significance of this most important element. ron. Key topics discussed include: dietary sources and intakes of iron; absorption, metabolic and physiological functions of iron: iron status in health and disease: iron status and requirements of different population sub-groups: the risks of excess iron intakes. The report sets out the conclusions and recommendations for further research.
