Question

fiona has been diagnosed with iron - deficiency anemia and is eating a bowl of fortified breakfast cereal. which food choice will aid in the absorption of iron from her cereal?

Explanation:

To aid iron absorption, vitamin C is crucial. Oranges are rich in vitamin C. Yogurt (dairy) can inhibit iron absorption, bacon is high in fat/protein (not aiding iron absorption), and banana has less vitamin C than orange. So orange helps absorb iron from cereal.

b. Orange
