...Iron () is a metallic chemical element with the symbol Fe () and atomic number 26. Iron is a group 8 and period 4 element and is therefore classified as a transition metal. Iron and iron alloys (steels) are by far the most common metals and the most common ferromagnetic materials in everyday use. Fresh iron surfaces are lustrous and silvery-grey in color, but oxidize in air to form a red or brown coating of ferric oxide or rust. Pure single crystals of iron are soft (softer than aluminium), and the addition of minute amounts of impurities, such as carbon, significantly strengthens them. Alloying iron with appropriate small amounts (up to a few per cent) of other metals and carbon produces steel, which can be 1,000 times harder than pure iron. Read full entry

Spinach, Asparagus, Broccoli, Collard Greens, Mustard Greens, Kale, Turnip Greens, Parsley, Cabbage. All have a high iron content. I know these aren't vegetables but most beans are high in iron like - Lima Beans, Kidney Beans, Navy Beans, Soy Beans, Chick Beans, Pinto Beans, Black Eye Beans. And there's your nuts and seeds like - Almonds, Cashews, Walnuts, Sunflower Seeds, Sesame seeds. Be sure to get enough vitamin B complex in to your diet. This helps in the release of energy from foods. Be sure to get a lot of Vitamin C in to your diet as this aids the body to absorb Iron. Iron is especially important for pre-menopausal women and will help prevent anemia. Signs of iron deficiancy are - Easily irritable Rapid heart rate Easily Exhausted More prone to infection Pale Appearance Poor appetite Shorter attention span A healthy balanced diet is always the key to a healthy body and mind. |

but the jeans I was wearing
have a threadbare hole
starting on the upper leg -- I
found an iron-on patch in a
sewing box and a iron in a
closet -- I was just wondering
what type of temperate setting
should I use on the iron ...
thanks for any info --
sorry meant temperature

I use those all the time on my husbands work clothes. I use it on COTTON... you should know that after about 10-20 washes the corners will start to come up and all you have to do is RE-IRON them back down. |

Where can I find the iron-on tape to cover labels in clothing? The clothing is made any way to cut corners. Now the labels are of a material which causes irritation/rash. Thank you
