Answer:

Explanation:

-Adding tomatoes and green peppers to a bean burger helps the body absorb the iron found in beans.

<em>Non-heme iron is easily absorbed. On the other hand, heme iron isn't. So mixing together both heme and non-heme iron makes it more prone to absorbing.</em>

-Drinking milk with a dinner of pork chops will affect absorption of iron.

- Chicken breast can be used as a source of heme iron.

<em>(Meat, fish, poultry are great sources of heme iron. Heme iron is a type of iron that is only found in animal's protein and it is more absorbable than the non-heme iron that is found in vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, etc. )</em>
