Vegan foods high in iron

Animal products such as meat are a great source of dietary iron, which can leave those of us who follow a plant-based diet concerned about our intake.

Luckily, plenty of vegan and vegetarian foods contain iron. These include chickpeas, tofu, lentils, leafy greens and seeds, including chia and hemp.

Getting enough iron as a vegetarian or vegan

As a vegan or vegetarian, it’s a good idea to make a conscious effort to include iron-rich foods in your diet, to prevent an iron deficiency.

Some cereals high in iron include amaranth, spelt and oats. These are a great addition to your diet as they are versatile and can be included in lots of dishes high in iron, from making your own granola to swapping them in for rice at dinner time.

Whole grains also tend to contain lots of fibre and minerals – an added bonus for your diet!

Do I need an iron supplement?

While most of us can source plenty of iron from our diets, vegans and vegetarians should be particularly conscious of their intake.

If you’re concerned about an iron deficiency, speak to your doctor before taking a supplement. Taking too much iron in supplement form can be harmful. However, it’s extremely difficult to get too much iron from your diet.

Our snack range is a great way to add more iron into your routine. Try our Organic Cashew Cheese, Spicy Kimchi, Japanese Wasabi, Rosemary Sweet Potato or Lion’s Mane Mushroom crackers. All of these are a source of iron.

Or, if you prefer something sweet, our Raw Dark Chocolate or Apple, Chia and Nopal Cactus Granolas are an excellent choice.
