Why an adult women needs more iron in her diet than an adult man of the same age

Sagot :

Answer:

They lose a lot of iron thru blood loss each month. If women did not have enough iron in their diet, they can feel tired, weakness, dry skin and nails,  poor concentration, can cause serious health problems, and/or your body will make fewer RBCs (red blood cells) or will produce smaller RBCs than normal.

Have an amazing day!!

Please rate and mark brainliest!!

I would say that.

Female's need more iron than male's because they need to make up for the amount of iron they lose in their period. Around 1 mg of iron is lost for every day of bleeding. Trust me I know because I am a female. And our iron deficiency is the most common because of hunger in women.

hope this helps :))
