My husband brought my attention to the iron goals and I am slightly confused. The web sights all seem to suggest that a woman my age be around 19mg of iron per day. The food track has my goal being 100. I'm confused. Any insight?:huh:

    the value in your food diary is 100% of your rda, check your goal settings to see how many mg.
