Bioavailability of minerals in legumes [PDF]

British Journal of Nutrition, 2002
The mineral content of legumes is generally high, but the bioavailability is poor due to the presence of phytate, which is a main inhibitor of Fe and Zn absorption. Some legumes also contain considerable amounts of Fe-binding polyphenols inhibiting Fe absorption. Furthermore, soya proteinper sehas an inhibiting effect on Fe absorption.
