I heard that Jerusalem artichoke is high in iron. Are these traces of iron only?

We’re pleased to tell you that Jerusalem artichoke contains a lot more than traces of iron! One cup of sliced Jerusalem artichokes provides you with more than a fourth of the recommended daily amount of iron (or about 3.4mg per 100g). To give you a better sense of how much that is, the equivalent amount would be found in a beef hamburger patty. We promise you, Jerusalem artichoke has a LOT less fat, cholesterol, and calories than a hamburger.

Iron is so important because it helps oxygen reach each one of the millions and millions of cells in your body. That, in turn, helps boost your energy and immunity levels.
