According to the National Institutes of Health, vegans are often advised to consume a higher amount of iron compared to non-vegans due to the lower bioavailability of non-heme iron from plant sources. This means that while non-vegans may have lower iron needs, vegans need to be more mindful of their intake and absorption strategies to ensure they meet their nutritional requirements.
