Which of the following is a non-heme source of iron?

  1. Ground beef

  2. Salmon

  3. Dried beans

  4. Turkey

The correct answer is: Dried beans

Dried beans are a non-heme source of iron because they do not contain heme iron, which is the type of iron found in animal products like ground beef, salmon, and turkey. Heme iron is more easily absorbed by the body compared to non-heme iron found in plant-based foods. Therefore, dried beans are the correct choice as a non-heme source of iron as they are a plant-based food option.
