====Food Sources of Iron====
*[[Iron deficiency]] can have serious [[health]] consequences that regular [[Diet (nutrition)|diet]] may not be able to quickly correct. Hence, [[iron]] supplementation is necessary in patients with Plummer-Vinson syndrome.
*[[Iron]] supplementation is often necessary if [[iron deficiency]] is symptomatic. However, mild [[iron deficiency]] can be corrected and prevented, by eating [[iron]]-rich foods.
**[[Iron]] rich foods from plants and animals are absorbed and processed differently by the [[body]].
**'''[[Iron]] from meat ([[heme]] iron source)''' is more easily broken down and absorbed than '''[[iron]] in grains (nonheme iron source).'''
**[[Minerals]] and [[chemicals]] in one type of food may inhibit [[absorption]] of [[iron]] from another type of [[food]] eaten at the same time.[http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002422.htm]
**[[Heme]]-bound [[iron]] from animal source is readily [[Absorption|absorbed]] as compared to [[iron]] from plant sources.
***Thus, [[vegetarian]]s and [[vegan]]s should have a higher total daily iron intake than those who consume meat, fish or poultry.[http://www.vrg.org/nutrition/iron.htm]
***[[Legume]]s and dark-green leafy vegetables like [[broccoli]], kale and oriental greens are especially good sources of [[iron]] for vegetarians and vegans. However, spinach and swiss chard contain [[oxalates]] which bind [[iron]] making it largely unavailable for [[absorption]].
***[[Iron]] from non-heme sources (foodgrains) is more readily [[Absorption|absorbed]] if consumed with foods that contain either [[heme]]-bound [[iron]] or [[vitamin C]].


Treatment is primarily aimed at correcting the iron-deficiency anemia. Patients with Plummer-Vinson syndrome should receive [[iron]] supplementation in their [[Diet (nutrition)|diet]]. This may improve dysphagia and pain.

Overview

The mainstay of treatment for Plummer-Vinson syndrome is aimed at correcting iron deficiency anemia. Patients with Plummer-Vinson syndrome should receive oral iron salts (ferrous sulphate) and iron supplementation in their diet. Parenteral iron is used in patients who are unable to tolerate oral iron or with malabsorption syndromes. Another important aspect in treating Plummer-Vinson syndrome is to identify the cause of iron deficiency in order to exclude active hemorrhage, malignancy or celiac disease.

Medical Therapy

The treatment of Plummer-Vinson syndrome is primarily aimed at correcting iron deficiency anemia.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

Iron deficiency anemia

Food Sources of Iron

  • Iron deficiency can have serious health consequences that regular diet may not be able to quickly correct. Hence, iron supplementation is necessary in patients with Plummer-Vinson syndrome.
  • Iron supplementation is often necessary if iron deficiency is symptomatic. However, mild iron deficiency can be corrected and prevented, by eating iron-rich foods.
    • Iron rich foods from plants and animals are absorbed and processed differently by the body.
    • Iron from meat (heme iron source) is more easily broken down and absorbed than iron in grains (nonheme iron source).
    • Minerals and chemicals in one type of food may inhibit absorption of iron from another type of food eaten at the same time.[3]
    • Heme-bound iron from animal source is readily absorbed as compared to iron from plant sources.
      • Thus, vegetarians and vegans should have a higher total daily iron intake than those who consume meat, fish or poultry.[4]
      • Legumes and dark-green leafy vegetables like broccoli, kale and oriental greens are especially good sources of iron for vegetarians and vegans. However, spinach and swiss chard contain oxalates which bind iron making it largely unavailable for absorption.
      • Iron from non-heme sources (foodgrains) is more readily absorbed if consumed with foods that contain either heme-bound iron or vitamin C.
