Heme is the iron-containing structure in the proteins hemoglobin and myoglobin. In red blood cells, hemoglobin enables oxygen uptake and transport. Myoglobin in muscle cells helps oxygen enter the cells. The oxygen carried by hemoglobin and myoglobin is critical for energy production. Because meat contains hemoglobin and myoglobin, beef, fish, and poultry contain more heme iron than most plant foods. The remaining iron in meat, as well as all the iron in vegetables, grains, dietary supplements, and fortified or enriched...
