Results: According to the results obtained with Rho = 0.483, there is a moderate correlation with a considerable relationship between the consumption of iron sources and hemoglobin levels. There is a moderate correlation between the consumption of heminic iron sources and hemoglobin levels, Rho = 0.512. There is a moderate correlation between the consumption of non-heminic iron sources and hemoglobin levels, Rho = 0.478. There is a slight correlation between the consumption of iron absorption inhibitors and hemoglobin levels, Rho = 0.151. There is a low correlation between the consumption of sources of vitamin C and hemoglobin levels, Rho = 0.347.
