Dietary Fe requirements are dependent on the amount and availability of food Fe ingested. On the basis of recent studies of food Fe absorption employing extrinsic tag techniques, the availability of heme Fe was defined and estimates of the availability of nonheme Fe based on the amounts of enhancing substances appear possible. A model was developed to estimate the availability of Fe in a given meal. Calculations are made on a meal basis of the amount of heme Fe and its availability and the amount of nonheme Fe and its availability as influenced by the meal''s content of enhancing factors. Examples of these calculations are provided.
