Are You Well Informed?

What salad topper has more iron than one serving of steak?

Answer: Chickpeas. While all of these plant-based foods will give you plenty of iron, 100 grams of chickpeas (about ½ a cup) will give you more iron than an equivalent serving of steak. One note: Your body isn’t the best at pulling iron from plants. The fix: Pair it with foods high in vitamin C (think: peppers, citrus, strawberries) so your system actually absorbs it.
