Abstract. Iron deficiency (ID) is one of the most common nutritional problems in the developing world, affecting primarily women of childbearing age. Poor dietary iron intake is a major reason of ID. Accurate measurement of iron intake is of crucial importance to combat the problem. The daily dietary iron intake of 67 female students aged between 20-30 years (a mean BMI of 21.8±3.4 kg/m2) was evaluated using three assessment methods: atomic absorption spectrometry of 3-day food duplicate samples, and food composition tables (FCTs) in combination with either food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) or dietary records. Iron status was examined using hematological and biochemical tests. The dietary iron intake determined by duplicate portion sampling (DPS; 4.12±1.84 mg/day) was significantly lower than the FCT-based estimates ( P<0.001), and it was less than ¼ of the recommended dietary allowance of 18 mg/day. No significant correlation was found between DPS technique and FCT-based assessment methods. Fifty percent of the participants had small or depleted iron stores (serum ferritin< 30 ng/mL), but only 4.5% had ID anemia (serum ferritin< 12 ng/mL and hemoglobin<12 g/dL). Dietary iron intakes and FFQ-based intakes of vitamin C were not significantly correlated with all the investigated hematological parameters. In order to take some steps toward more practical approaches to combat this health problem, development of an accurate iron intake assessment seems to be the first priority. In this regard, improvement and validation of national FCTs would be a promising solution.

Marketing Information

In its recent statement on iron,1 the Committee on Nutrition emphasized the value of iron-fortified, proprietary milk formulas for the prevention of iron-deficiency anemia of infancy. Despite this recommendation, the most recent marketing information available to the Committee shows that more than 70% of the proprietary formulas currently prescribed by physicians do not contain added iron. The reasons for continuing routine use of formulas not fortified with iron are not entirely clear. One reason may be that some physicians still believe iron additives increase the incidence of feeding problems or gastrointestinal disturbances. There is no documented evidence that this is a significant problem. The Committee strongly recommends when proprietary formulas are prescribed that iron-supplemented formulas be used routinely as the standard–that is, that this be the rule rather than the exception. There seems to be little justification for continued general use of proprietary formulas not fortified with iron. The Committee is fully aware that only a small percentage of American infants are fed proprietary formulas after 6 months of age. Fluid whole milk (available in bottle or carton ) or evaporated milk, both of which contain only trace amounts of iron, are substituted at the time of greatest iron need and highest prevalence of iron-deficiency anemia. The infant's diet is usually deficient in iron, unless other foods are carefully selected to insure adequate iron intake. Since the major dietary component during infancy is milk, two courses of action should be taken: (1) Pediatricians and other health professionals should engage in a program of public education to convince American mothers to provide their infants with a source of dietary iron.

Determinations of blood volume, total red cell volume, plasma and red cell iron turnover rates, and red cell survival were performed in seven dogs prior to and subsequent to radioiodine destruction of the thyroid gland. Anemia developed slowly in all animals as a result of a diminished rate of red cell synthesis. Erythrocyte survival was unaffected by thyroid ablation. Serum iron concentration decreased in five animals despite the apparent adequacy of dietary iron intake and the absence of detectable external loss. In two animals, parenteral administration of iron failed to correct the anemia. Vitamin B12 was ineffective in correcting the anemia or in producing a reticulocyte response in two other animals.

The causal relationship between serum ferritin and metabolic syndrome (MetS) remains inconclusive. Dietary iron intake increases serum ferritin. The objective of this study was to evaluate associations of total, heme, and nonheme dietary iron intake with MetS and its components in men and women in metropolitan China. Data from 3099 participants in the Shanghai Diet and Health Survey (SDHS) obtained during 2012–2013 were included in this analysis. Dietary intake was assessed by 24-h diet records from 3 consecutive days. Multivariate generalized linear mixed models were used to evaluate the associations of dietary iron intake with MetS and its components. After adjustment for potential confounders as age, sex, income, physical exercise, smoking status, alcohol use, and energy intake, a positive trend was observed across quartiles of total iron intake and risk of MetS (p for trend = 0.022). Compared with the lowest quartile of total iron intake (<12.72 mg/day), the highest quartile (≥21.88 mg/day) had an odds ratio (95% confidence interval), OR (95% CI), of 1.59 (1.15,2.20). In addition, the highest quartile of nonheme iron intake (≥20.10 mg/day) had a 1.44-fold higher risk of MetS compared with the lowest quartile (<11.62 mg/day), and higher risks of MetS components were associated with the third quartiles of total and nonheme iron intake. There was no association between heme iron intake and risk of MetS (p for trend = 0.895). Associations for total and nonheme iron intake with MetS risk were found in men but not in women. Total and nonheme dietary iron intake was found to be positively associated with MetS and its components in the adult population in metropolitan China. This research also revealed a gender difference in the association between dietary iron intake and MetS.
